Bill Gates predicts that “the worst is still ahead” and the death toll will ultimately rise by millions.
Emerging markets, where health-care systems and economies are already struggling, is where the pain will be most pronounced, he explained in
a recent interview in the Economist.
But the U.S. is dealing with its own unique set of issues, as politics and conspiracy theories have contributed to what he said has been a disappointing response. Why? In the name of freedom.
‘We believe in freedom, individual freedom. We optimize for individual rights.’
According to Gates, Trump supporters have wielded “freedom” to make a political statement that continues to complicate the U.S. response to the pandemic. Refusing to wear a mask, for instance, is one way for them to signal their anger and resistance.
How many lies are you going to propogate Monte before the truth of this hits you in the face? It is no longer a pandemic. It is less than a flu season now. I'm seeing and hearing on the ground the testing is returning about 95% negative. Those positive stay on oxygen, get meds and are discharged home.
You discount what freedom means. The value of what being an individual who chooses their own fate and lives their daily life not being interfered with. Right now certain Americans are being told where they can go, how they have to go there, business's are closed left and right. If they want to reopen, they are given an impossible task of social distance, masks and limited numbers. That is government interference in the top level. They threaten their license if they don't comply.
We are so far past a pandemic but yet we seem to be amping up more precautions. Any reasonable person would expect those precautions to pull back when numbers drop precipitously as they have since April. I'm talking about the stats that count, hospitalizations and deaths. The system will not be overwhelmed. Apparently the extra beds sent to areas "that were swamped" weren't needed. The virus is finishing its course.
Half the time I don't wear a mask at work. I don't mask in business's in Virginia anymore. I'm Not interested in having my right to life, liberty and my pursuit of happiness interfered with an a grand sweeping level anymore. I'm not harming anyone else so anyone with the
" let's kill grandma" attitude can suck it.
So you need to explain to me how it's justifiable to listen to, seek out and propagate such utter ******** about Bill Gates and Harvard, who do not give a **** about your personal freedom, but would seek to limit it further and push the agenda of mandatory vaccines for money. I have a big problem with the .gov telling me I have to inject something in my body without knowing what's in it and the long term consequences. I also have a problem with Mandatory vaccines to the general population because half these people who just acquiesce with out knowledge show an attitude that my body isn't precious enough to protect. It's the only one we have.
You can be a pin cushion both mentally and physically if you want to, I choose to question.
Bill Gates permanently altered the lives of young women and men with his giardasil injections. Neurologically damaging teenagers. He's damaged untold and documented 10's of thousands of children with the application of 10 polio vaccines a year to children in India, who's parents didn't know their children were guinea pigs. Now they have paralysis and India is suing the gates foundation. The damage is done.
You have joined the ranks of sycophants for the msm driven agenda of fear and emotions. Do you actually research these foundations you are touting? You will see they don't give a damn about you or me or children in foreign counties. Bill Gates would eliminate both our lives to meet his population reduction plan. He has enough money to be extremely dangerous and has proven that. It's not like he's keeping it a secret.
Do everyone a solid. Stop taking stories, meant to ping the heart and feelings, at face value. Garbage in, garbage out.
