Bill Gates, in an interview granted to ‘Policy Exchange‘, spoke about “possible terrorist attacks” involving the monkeypox virus, and used the occasion to issue the following warning to governments around the world. A warning in order to be prepared for future pandemics and bioterrorist attacks. “We must be ready ‘at any cost’ to stop disasters like smallpox terror attacks“, he said in the first place.
At the same time, he provided various advice to countries in the fight against monkeypox. One of the solutions proposed by the founder of Microsoft was the immediate disposal of “germ sets”in addition to investing money in development and research in the face of a possible pandemic, with the aim of being prevented and having a response plan.
On the other hand, he argued that these types of epidemics could be worse than the current ones. “There are epidemics caused naturally, and others caused by bioterrorismwhich could even be worse than the ones we experience today”. In fact, it is not the first time that Bill Gates has warned about the need to make a significant investment to avoid future pandemics. He already mentioned it in his book ‘How to prevent the next pandemic‘.
