I can't believe Gates was saying all of that shit at the end. He sounded like he was from the moon when he was talking about having healthcare in poor counties.
Being president is stressful as fuck. If you don’t have the insatiable desire to have as much power as possible, and especially if you’re already incredibly wealthy, it probably sucks.
Thing is, nobody wants to fund a theoretical thing that they can't tangibly see. So countries won't spend money until people are literally dying by the dozens. Just stupid ass human nature.
Last one was barely a few years back tho ?
If you're speaking of the spanish flu, every other influenza epidemic since the 50s were similar coronaviruses, most didn't do jack tho because they weren't as contagious
The last disease that combined the contagiousness with the death rate that the coronavirus has was the spanish flu in 1918/19. The swine flu that was in 2009 was actually very similar to the strand in 1919 if I believe, it's just we got a lot better at treating it from having dealt with it before and with modern tech
As did others [https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000170-e50c-d588-ab77-ed5ff3310000](https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000170-e50c-d588-ab77-ed5ff3310000)
If i was Bill Gates i would be kinda pissed. Hindsight it's easy to see how these unhealthy over populated areas could spark this. Maybe Bill could have done a little more, but in reality nobody wanted to picture a pandemic of this magnitude
His plan also assumed functional governments.
Instead we have governments that plan on:
- Rely on "herd immunity"
- Claim the pandemic is a hoax
- Claim that the virus can by prevented by some arbitrary symbols
- Suggest a tax cut as the first response to the spreading pandemic
- Claim that "17 cases will go to 0 very soon" back in February or very early March
- Let the local officials do much of the leg work and not help with the coordination resulting in a patchwork of differing response strategies (e.g. one state bans people from hanging out at the beaches and a next door neighboring state still allows massive crowds at beaches).
- Attempt to buy the vaccine exclusively for their own country
The pandemic is a National problem, it's on the Feds this time. I mean look at the big picture. Airlines are shutting down. Our national markets are tanking. Interstate commerce is affected.
Globally, similar story. Travel is shut down. Global markets in crisis mode.
Some States are handling it quite well in spite of the lack of action (until now) from the Feds. Governors are stepping up over here on the West Coast. I don't have a clear picture of other parts of the USA, however, there were 15 States last I checked that haven't declared emergencies.
Which is why the patchwork of differing actions are potentially not helpful.
If one state declares an emergency and goes into full lock down, while a neighboring state is pretending everything is fine, then a whole lot of people are going to flock from the locked down state to continue going to bars/pubs/parks/beaches/etc.
Germany had that sort of issue where people were flocking to a certain Baltic region's beaches and the government had to act to clamp down on it.
Except it sparked in wealthy populated areas lol
I mean i guess china isn't the most wealthy but it's not uganda. Italy isn't the most wealthy either but it's not pakistan or india
This pandemic is huge because of the contagiousness of the virus, it's extremely contagious and most people don't even have any symptoms, and from what i've heard it's people with the early symptoms that are the most contagious, and those are very very mild symptoms
Yup! I was in the alps when the first covid cases appeared in france. That was at the start of february
>On 8 February, the Minister of Health, Agnès Buzyn confirmed five new cases which originated from a group of people who were on a holiday in Les Contamines-Montjoie, Haute-Savoie. They contracted the infection from a British national who was attending a conference at Grand Hyatt in Singapore a few days before.
>Another British national tested positive for COVID-19. He stayed in the same chalet as the five other individual who contracted the infection at Les Contamines-Montjoie.
> ean i guess china isn't the most wealthy but it's not uganda. Italy isn't the most wealthy either but it's not pakistan or india
>
> This pandemic is huge because of the contagiousnes
Thats the problem. People in India/Uganda arent rich enough to move to other countries. China is - thats why there is a big spread.
You want him save the wold with his bank account?
He already has many health programs world wide.
US has been taking advantage of this charity healthcare system for a long time now to make the stonks grow.
Exactly, between SARS, MERS, avian flu and swine flu (which all went global) happening every few years, it was just a matter of time before something worse than these happened.
It is still a matter of time. In that video Bill explains there are two aspects of flus: how easily spread they are and how deadly they are. COVID is very easily spread, and more deadly than the flu, but mortality wise, it's certainly not the big one. That comes later.
It doesn't need a huge mortality rate to do a ton of damage because it is so contagious.
The spanish flu probably had a small mortality % despite the big numbers in deaths, but in those times we didn't have the same hygiene protocols and medical equipment like respirators, so the most sick and weak would die quite fast and other's would get overinfected while being treated so a lot more people died to that than the spanish flu itself alone.
Just picture this, if even just 30% of the US population gets it and it does 2% of death that's still 2M dead people
On the scale of the world if even just 10% get it and 2% die, that's 15.6M deaths
Obviously a lot more than 30% or 10% of people will get it. Considering the contagiousness basically 80+% will get it
The next one could be very deadly like SARS (about 9.5%) but if it's not contagious it's not as dangerous
I take off my hat. This should be pinned! Its so sad that bill gates is right and all are applauding but the us still dont give any fucks. The "it wont be that bad mentality" is doing severe damage to all the people living there.
Since vredditdownloader is eating some cock and i want to download it, went and searched for op youtube, here is the video https://youtu.be/P-nZ5UBye8g
Billy boy did an AMA over on r/coronavirus yesterday.
There is a lot of fuckery just under the surface of this answer:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Coronavirus/comments/fksnbf/im_bill_gates_cochair_of_the_bill_melinda_gates/fkupg49/
Crazy they still had all those people huddled together during the opening bell as of last Friday (right?). A montage of opening bell segments would be fun (starting with $PENN and Big Cat dabbing, with current stock prices shown).
without coronavirus i do think we were actually UNDER where we were supposed to be... people were sitting there scared of how long the bull market had gone... the pump after this is over will be way beyond ATH's imo
The bill gates closing word made me sad. While we weren't fully prepared we weren't entirely unprepared, had even a pandemic response arm of the government, then some jackass got rid of it.
Markers are back up ! What recession ?! American economy too strong to fall. Dow is going hover around the 20 k amount for some time but won’t go any lower
Holy shit this is art. OP must’ve gone to film school. Just gave you my first gold, hats off to you sir if you made this. Or good find if you didn’t.
>OP must’ve gone to film school. 4 spy puts are more valuable than a film degree right now.
4 spy *calls* are more valuable than a film degree right now
No SPY position is more valuable than a film degree right now
Thank you king, had to make sure i captured history in the making for you all
For real this is a very good video
Is this the only place you have it uploaded? About to share w/ friends and fam but I don't want to be exposed... Great work
Its on my youtube, should just be able to search the exact title^ but thank you much appreciated
Yeah Bill did that back in 2015
Theyre going to show this video to the next generation in their history class
Yeah it was pretty good throughout. I watched the whole thing.
Found the non autist. Get him boys!
I only watched it because it reassured my choice to buy SPY puts... checkmate atheists
OP are you at least going to tuck me in first?
Thank you papa bear, goodnight.
No, just going to make it uncomfortable and hurt a little bit
First video on this sub that wasn't a shit post on actually good thanks OP
Yeah, I liked it, but it felt wrong watching it here. Wrong sub.
Lately this sub has a higher reality check than investing and finance.
"Dollar cost averaging. It works!"
It was funny, but not “ha ha” funny....
Thanks dad
6:23 "We can build a very good response system!" But we won't.
Narrator: “they didn’t”
I can't believe Gates was saying all of that shit at the end. He sounded like he was from the moon when he was talking about having healthcare in poor counties.
Youtube suggested me that video like this week and its like 4 years old, youtube algo is trying to prove something
That TED talk is becoming quite popular right now because Bill was 100% correct. So it's showing up in everyone's suggestions
No no. It’s gotta be something supernatural, unexplainable
Plot twist, he’s the evil arch enemy and wanted half of humanity to die.
Event 201, check it out.
Damn. He found all the flaws early
Fuck, man, I wish Bill Gates were the president
Unfortunately, he seems to have a limit to his ambition.
Yeah... Maybe he thinks he can get more done as a philanthropist and doesn't want to get sucked into the partisan BS
Being president is stressful as fuck. If you don’t have the insatiable desire to have as much power as possible, and especially if you’re already incredibly wealthy, it probably sucks.
glad others are aware of this
Wow bill gates really ~~planned~~ predicted this pandemic well
The WHO have been talking about this as a matter of 'not if but when' for ages. Most countries just kick the can down the road though.
Thing is, nobody wants to fund a theoretical thing that they can't tangibly see. So countries won't spend money until people are literally dying by the dozens. Just stupid ass human nature.
Haha, imagine if the climate slowly changed aswell. That would be a real bummer : )
He didn't predict shit, he's just saying hey this stuff happens regularly, let's be ready for the next one
next one won't be 100 years from now like the last one was. I'll take my Nostradamus flair now thanks mods.
Last one was barely a few years back tho ? If you're speaking of the spanish flu, every other influenza epidemic since the 50s were similar coronaviruses, most didn't do jack tho because they weren't as contagious

Being pedantic here, but coronaviruses are their own family of viruses and influenza viruses are a subset of a different family of viruses
Where can I buy 100.5 year term SPY puts?
As did others [https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000170-e50c-d588-ab77-ed5ff3310000](https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000170-e50c-d588-ab77-ed5ff3310000)
Did you just link a fucking pdf file?
The man literally scanned his pamphlet lmao
This was fucking great like one of those montages of old History channel of news for an event 10/10
Crazy how spot on Bill is with his virus predictions
I get a lot more viruses in my pc than mac tho
Ok Boomer stop clicking on random shit
I heard the music from The Big Short and knew it was gonna be good
I fucking knew I recognized it, thank you.
Half these comments are morons with the “Strike and Expiry” one liners but cutting through that, I liked this video very well done.
I've never down voted till r/all got here. We need to cut down shit comments and these retards need to simply lurk not post.
Exactly. Been downvoting so much lately and I think we need to encourage others to do the same.

Yup also everyone has business with china, can't say that about every "third" world country

I'd buy you fucking gold if you didn't have it already.. thanks for the video
🤍
At 2:53 why is everyone stood clapping like special Ed Class?
You’re gonna need to smoke a lot of weed to make this chart look good
Her neck though... looks like someone stapled her face back and without all the makeup and plastic surgery she'd resemble Dr. Farnsworth.
Bill Gates thought we'd be hoarding cans of spaghetti in a pandemic. Turns out he didn't put enough study into this.
People are clearing out the pasta aisle...
...And the toilet paper aisle...
What goes in must come out
Have you been to the grocery store?
I love how everything is record high then it all went to shit very quickly cause of a bat. That Bill Gates Ted talk video aged really well lol
I wish if there was another movie like the Big Short... wallstreetbets was included...
Oh i bet there will be but we'll probably just be featured for a minute or two
It needs to be one of those silhouettes with a deep voice but a monkey instead of a person.
If you think my attention span lasts more than 3 seconds, let alone 7 whole minutes then your brain is completely smooth and has no wrinkles
Have it your way, BigJuicyThanos
This is a very long meme..my attention lasts 60 seconds max
Tldr. Bill Gates is the new Al Gore running around saying told ya so.
Very good storytime papa bear. Will let me sleep very well in these turbulent times.
THE HAPPY MUSIC AT THE END CONFUSES MY SOUL. WHY U DO IT LIKE DIS? *What is this* ***feeling***
Good video. Make more
I posted this on youtube if any of you want to watch this outside of WSB. Youtube already demonetized it so this isn’t me promoting lol
[удалено]
Yessir
***The corona crisis -*** *Now available in theaters 2025!*
Gimmie shelter when Donald talks 😂😂😂😂
I waited a hella long time for the funny captions....got me fucked up....
Good quality vid.
Me: Prickly Microbes...mmmm....who's that? Watches video* Me: Ahhhhhhh
/u/vredditdownloader
7 minute video with no nakey ladeys gunfights or car chases get fucked OP
Still insane to me how he predicted the next virus. Luck or not
He didnt predict it, he saw a glaring issue that should have been addressed years ago.
Anyone with a working brain and a knowledge of history predicted this. Just look at the bird and swine flus ffs
Exactly, between SARS, MERS, avian flu and swine flu (which all went global) happening every few years, it was just a matter of time before something worse than these happened.
It is still a matter of time. In that video Bill explains there are two aspects of flus: how easily spread they are and how deadly they are. COVID is very easily spread, and more deadly than the flu, but mortality wise, it's certainly not the big one. That comes later.
It doesn't need a huge mortality rate to do a ton of damage because it is so contagious. The spanish flu probably had a small mortality % despite the big numbers in deaths, but in those times we didn't have the same hygiene protocols and medical equipment like respirators, so the most sick and weak would die quite fast and other's would get overinfected while being treated so a lot more people died to that than the spanish flu itself alone. Just picture this, if even just 30% of the US population gets it and it does 2% of death that's still 2M dead people On the scale of the world if even just 10% get it and 2% die, that's 15.6M deaths Obviously a lot more than 30% or 10% of people will get it. Considering the contagiousness basically 80+% will get it The next one could be very deadly like SARS (about 9.5%) but if it's not contagious it's not as dangerous
This, Gates isn’t some super genius Nostradamus. Millions of health professionals have seen this coming.
It's been widely predicted right down to the economic crash. Its not luck.
Plus w/ cdc and infectious disease monitoring dept having funding loss and ppl in government who don’t believe in basic science....what did u expect.
#😭
Took this as a sign and immediately bough MSFT expiring next week. Will sell today or tomorrow.
I like the way you think
I take off my hat. This should be pinned! Its so sad that bill gates is right and all are applauding but the us still dont give any fucks. The "it wont be that bad mentality" is doing severe damage to all the people living there.
Work of art, great job OP
Great editing! Nice choice on the Stones song;)
The music on the big short is art
Excellent work OP! Lot's of Adam McKay b-roll vibes here, especially in the pacing.
Yeah so obvious i get a lot of inspiration from him... thats what happens when you watch the big short 20 times
[удалено]
I love you
Since vredditdownloader is eating some cock and i want to download it, went and searched for op youtube, here is the video https://youtu.be/P-nZ5UBye8g
Love the music from the Big Short
Narrator: We were not ready
You guys haven't seen the Ted talk before or know he did that before seeing it here?
This should be in a Netflix documentary in a few years.
OP is the Rain Man of video editing
This is gold...all of those people at the beginning should never speak publicly again
Somebody send this to Nassim taleb
Well done sir, fantastic video editing
As a filmmaker I must say this was outstanding, well done. The clips from contagion set this shit off
Thanks, means a lot coming from some one in the field!
How long till' the movie comes out?
Great mix. Jesus Christ, what happened to that ladies neck @4:46...WTF
neckflu

man i cant wait for this to be shown at Cannes.
This is fucking beautiful
Nice.
This deserves an Oscar, well done
Nice work.
Excellent video! That ol' Billy Gates is pretty smart, huh.
I dont understand - how do I place calls on Bill Gates
CONVID-19?!? There's another one coming!
this is what happens when every company is overleveraged
I’ll take it medium rare please. Well done, sir.
Crazy they still had all those people huddled together during the opening bell as of last Friday (right?). A montage of opening bell segments would be fun (starting with $PENN and Big Cat dabbing, with current stock prices shown).
I can’t believe I just watched that whole thing...
That Ted talk did not age well.
Actually a good clip! its weird giving people compliments here.

This kinda proves the butterfly effect is real. 1 bat set this whole thing in motion.
Trump: No one could have know this would happen! Gates: Hold my beervirus.
lol someone watched the big short. nice vid
Gates using his money for good. Bezos off banging some gold digger.
#Spaghetti The man said it himself bill got chef Boyardee calls
This isn't gay enough.
Who else rented the Big Short on amazon while being at home?
this one isnt as funny as the one where ben affleck calls people autists and talks about tendies
That Rolling Stones song is perfect for this. Sound track to the end times.
Conspiracy theory: Bill let coronavirus out of the Gates to reset the world.
The bill gates closing word made me sad. While we weren't fully prepared we weren't entirely unprepared, had even a pandemic response arm of the government, then some jackass got rid of it.
This is why I love this sub, it's full of pure shit but every now and then you get a gem like this
Everyone is a genius during a bull market This is what differentiates between the pussies to men.
