Bill Gates Interview
In an interview with Sky News, Bill Gates had said that he believes that the world will completely return to normal by the end of next year, i. e 2022. He added on explaining that he believes so because of the high rate of implementation of the Covid vaccines in the developed countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States of America and he says that these countries will help the developing countries get the vaccines by the end of this year.
Bill Gates further added on saying that he although doesn’t expect the vaccines to completely eliminate the presence of the vaccines in the same year but the number of cases is expected to reach to a very less amount.
He said that he was not surprised with the fact that the developed countries gave first priority for their citizens to provide vaccines. He criticized it by saying that right now the people in their 30s in the developing countries could get vaccines while those over 60 years old in Brazil or South Africa are yet to receive a shot.
