Microsoft co-founder, Bill Gates, has revealed that until there is a vaccine to tackle the Coronavirus pandemic, the world would remain unstable.
The Philanthropist who made the disclosure in an interview with the U.S broadcaster, Fox News on Sunday, said the development of the vaccine needs to be facilitated in order to quickly arrest the situation.
“Things will not get back to truly normal until we have a vaccine that has gotten out to the entire world,” Gates told Fox News.
“Developed nations, like the U.S., will be able to combat the virus sooner or later, but the virus needed to be defeated globally,” he added.
On Thursday, Gates called on the U.S. government to start constructing factories for the most promising vaccine developments in the fight against the virus.
“Because many of the top candidates are made using unique equipment, we’ll have to build facilities for each of them, knowing that some won’t get used,” Gates said on his blog.
“Private companies can’t take that kind of risk, but the federal government can,” he said.
Recalls that Gates had earlier announced that more things needed to be done as a matter of urgency to deal with the virus causing pandemonium.
