Bill Gates claims that the risks of the coronavirus have been "dramatically reduced", but another pandemic is coming.

Speaking to CNBC at the annual Munich Security Conference, Bill Gates said a possible new pandemic may come from a different pathogen than coronavirus, but added that advances in medical technology should help make better job to combat it if investments are made now.

Another pandemic is coming, according to Bill Gates
"We will have another pandemic. It will be a different pathogen next time, "said Bill Gates, who wrote a book on how to prevent future pandemics.

He added that the world needs to move faster in the future to develop and distribute vaccines, urging governments to invest now. "The cost of preparing for the next pandemic is not so great. It is not like climate change. "If we are reasonable, yes, next time we will catch it early," said Bill Gates.

After two years of the coronavirus pandemic, Gates stressed that the worst results have waned as huge sections of the world's population have acquired some level of immunity, noting that its severity has also been reduced by the most recent mutation, the Omicron. At the same time, Gates explained that in many places this was due to the virus itself, which creates a level of immunity.

"Too late" for the WHO target for vaccination
Bill Gates also said that the World Health Organization's goal of vaccinating 70% of the world's population by mid-2022 "is too late."

It was already "too late" for the World Health Organization to reach the goal of vaccinating 70% of the world's population by mid-2022. At present, according to CNBC, 61,9% of the world's population has received at least one vaccine dose for coronavirus.
