Microsoft billionaire Bill Gates told The Daily Show that his foundation is funding the construction of factories for seven different candidates for a coronavirus vaccine.
He said in a situation where the world faces the loss of trillions of dollars to the economy, wasting a few billion in an effort to help the problem is worth it.Bill Gates is plugging money into building factories for seven promising coronavirus vaccines, despite the fact it will mean wasting billions of dollars.
"Because our foundation has such deep expertise in infectious diseases, we've thought about the epidemic, we did fund some things to be more prepared like a vaccine effort, our early money can accelerate things," said Gates.

KidNate .is he funding or investing?
Waste billions of dollars? is BI saying we aren't worth saving?
How is this a waste of money? Sounds like money well spent.
Evil man! Vaccines that cause sterility in young people and children to feed his 'depopulation' narrative!
Maybe billionaires do have a place in our world AOC and BernieSanders . Certainly making decisions that governments have proven not willing and not able to do
trecet Trying to save lives is 'wasting money'. Well done, capitalism!
I called it pre virus. if this happened bill would be helpful.and his wife.
He’s gonna be the one to save the world not realDonaldTrump
He wants population control via vaccination. Wtf does he put in his vaccinesnto get to that
paulg How many billions will he make once all citizens are required to get the vaccine?.
JayMan471 Bill Gates is our greatest living human
kenwcherry Waste billions? He owns all the patents on the viruses and vaccines...he and his partner Soros will make exponentially more billions when vaccine rolls out. QTN
Wanna see the face of evil? That’s it right there
naval Counter point: why should ONE non elected individual control vaccine manufacturing and distribution
Delete your account.
So, he 'predicts' this event since 2015, has a Respiratory Virus Pandemic Simulation in Oct 2019 (Event 201), and insists on a vaccine, rather than focus on drugs immediately available. Who profits from the vaccines?
JohnathanPetrov Oh boy!
Respect
Thank you BillGates you rock!
Lol waste

Thank you Mr. Gates
King of the new world order BillGates ! 🙌🏼
Psychopath
Buisness Insider: first really stupid header I read from you.
The population must he control and lessen even once and a while, the rest chipped and barcoded like cattle.
DavMicRot wya
Mindnumbingly bad take. You suck.
paulg aliwanas_ Kareem_Radwan XixiMika Sa3dun
Bills bills bills. Will u pay my telephone bills.
My conversations with him have been underwhelming tbh
We need a Bill Gates & Tim Cook combo to lead the charge. Gates leads research, and the supply chain master Cook sources the ventilators, masks and gloves for healthcare workers.
Evil billionai...oh
'Waste' assumes that money is the only return on investment that has value. Spending money to save lives is not a waste!
I already see people complaining about this and saying he is a horrible human being
He's building infrastructure for ongoing deliveries of mass vaccination protocols in perpetuity
im not taking anything bill gates is giving unless its windows and lately ive been thinking apple !
azeimazeem jazib_parvez surkho ko tag karo
No offense to mcuban or MikeBloomberg but BillGates is showing the kind of foresight, judgement, and commitment that could unite Americans if we were to have another billionaire President.
The title, a person who thinks they know how to spend money better than Bill Gates. You don’t know better but you can always rely on sensationalizing your envy
To be clear, “waste” in this case isn’t a criticism. It’s more of an indication of how important the effort is, that the “waste” doesn’t matter in this context.
Providing jobs for people at this time can't be considered a waste. Neither can research efforts for a COVID2019 vaccine.
Vaccines are bad strategy in the long run,Even if we had Covid-19 vaccine today there are literally thousands of viruses which have the potential to cause pandemics. Are we gonna end up taking thousands of vaccines every year Broad spectrum antivirals are better.
jonst0kes Money invested in scientific, medical, & vaccine research will never be wasted dollars.
jonst0kes Not a waste of one of them comes up with the vaccine
My write in for President 2020
Building a factory in order to probably not use it is outside the “inferential distance Overton window” of US government decisionmaking. It’s a very compact window. Bill Gates’ IDOW is much larger.
Yeah, because you know, human life?.....
He must really love people so much!
7 vaccine laboratories / $100bn networth = 7e-10% of his networth, don't let him fool you
JeffBezos looking like a real asshole right about now
Let us listen to this man atleast now
terrible headline
If only Bill Gates cared for dwindling animals and less about the 7.5 Billion Homo Sapiens a pest species that is killing all other animals.
Gates has 100 to 200 billion invested in the health of the global economy. Smart move here.
The money you spend paying your headline writer is wasted. I'm not sure the word applies to Bill Gates here, though.
paulg Will mobilize, more than four months later since all started. What a piece of Windows win
Not a 'waste', he is taking the cost of fast tracking production onto himself because he can.
This is an awful awful headline. Just terrible. Come on,
The billionaries are also the ones who got us into this by insisting on some popular tv pos rather than Hillary or Warren.
paulg By the time a vaccine will be ready everyone on earth will have been exposed to the virus anyway...
triketora Unlike Trmp, money is not Bill Gates God.
Waste?
NAChristakis Arguably, the great strides Gates made with personal computers has already saved a great many lives. There was a time when the only thing you'd know about an illness was what you'd see with your own eyes or hear by rumor.
EVIL BILLIONAIRE
RCAFDM I'm gonna just guess here that Gates knows more about financial wisdom and business acumen than the author.
Explain to me again why it would have been better if the government had taxed away this money so that Donald Trump could decide how to spend it instead of Bill Gates?
NAChristakis Because Gates will obviously make zero profit from the vaccine? How strange that Gates has been planning for this since waaaay back when Gates was an enemy of the people.
NAChristakis “waste” 🤔
businessInsider male readers - politically conservative , evidenced interest in rightward-leaning authors, TV hosts, news commentators. These men, in 40s and 50s, are less likely to live in urban areas. these GOP loyalists watch hosts and political commentators on Fox News
NAChristakis govt can't save us, one of these guys may.
Stupidest headline ever. UnintentionalSelfOwns
NAChristakis Waste?
I think bill gates is better at business than you guys actually
A great example of a smart use of slack (inefficiency is not always evil).
Research and development is wasteful?
Very bad headline.
This scares me.
Waste?
You spelt 'invest' wrong.
extraordinary
Bill gates to the rescue !
“waste”?
This is why he is where he is..... he sees the big picture and does what needs to be done, even if it is risky. He'll waste billions now, but if because of these efforts things are improved, he'll recover the money very quickly.
A hero of the modern world!
Weird usage of the word 'waste' here
If you've seen the Netflix doc about him, that's basically what he does for a living now. Take a problem, throw scientists at it.
Of course he is. Rather than use what appears to be a cure, Chloroquine, an inexpensive drug deemed safe for decades, let’s use a “preventative vaccine” that will make big pharma billions, requires yearly doses for everyone (vs just those sick) and isn’t proven to be safe.
Never trust the guy who made Windows Vista
***psst... hey bill, your agenda is showing
We know Bill is all about global depopulation from his own words below, so this call is not to protect Americans. He has a plan in this for global vaccination/sterilization and more.
Je comprends mieux l’engagement de Bill Gates dans la santé après avoir regardé l’excellente vidéo de idrissaberkane « les nouveaux marché d’Apple »
PriyaFlorence Research is never a waste of money. The potential of discovery can out weigh the dollar amount if proven substantial and a future necessity. FridayMotivation
Can't throw money at everything... and vaccines? Why not cures? Why not ways to prevent the virus? The theory of using vaccines is next level lazy and dangerous. If we get the virus after taking said vaccine, do we then blame the vaccine? Same with tests. Will it be mandatory?
don't always believe everything your read.... hard work definitely does not make anyone a billionaire......
Sounds like what universities used to do before they were privitized. As if we needed billionaires to decide what to do with our money...
BIll Gates’s is just a Proper example of the ultimate humanitarian and deserves all that he has acquired in his life. God bless you Mr Gate’s!!!
Bill has my vote. Cant believe the stuff people write about him. Go Bill go!!
Mis_Giftz
Thank u bill
The question is how many more years do Bill Gates and his allies think have in this world!!! Surely they are not immortals😀beside having large chunks of cash. Let them not worry about the well being of Earth as there is a creator whose in charge.
We hope this is in good motives
It's a good business
If you think Bill Gates spending billions on a cure for a viral pandemic is a waste of money, then I have got a bridge to sell you on the corporate tax breaks that let billionaires accumulate such wealth.
Bill and other perpetuators should stop secretly installing 5G signals it is harmful to health. Why create a problem and solution at the same time? It’s because of your thirst for power and desire to control the world. We know your plan you agent of satan.
We need supplies on testing.Everyone can be test: The healthy go back immediately to work and the rest must quarantined or be hospitalized. We need some support on this first. Every body wants to go back to our normal lives. Why not everybody is focusing in test first?
Chutiye toh hum hi hain
Now that we have everything in place we can have MSM tell the people to come down and get their shots and ear tags. filmyourhospital Thank you Billy, your the Greatest wizard off them all.
USA factories? Good. Thanks
The kind of billionaire the world needs right now.
Its not wasting
thank you and God bless BillGates & melindagates [ gatesfoundation ] ...
👏🏻👏🏻
The future of vaccine development and research needs to be carefully managed and needs to be carried out by the global community with full transparency.
he can afford it and he needs to do it. he exploited thousands of hours of human labor to accumulate billions of dollars and now he’s paying back. no need to celebrate.
that's chump change I just gave all these people all over.
He needs to make sure it will not be wasted!
