Coronavirus outbreak and Bill Gates

Bill Gates predicted that the next disaster will be the virus outbreak, and he said that we are not ready for the outbreak situations. "If anything kills over 10 million people in the next few decades, it's most likely to be a highly infectious virus, rather than a war." He said this around 5 years ago on TED talk. And yes. The Coronavirus were outbreaks, and the result shows up that, still, we are not ready for those virus outbreaks yet. Let's take a look at what he said 5 years ago and yesterday about the Coronavirus outbreak.

I am, as Korean, so glad that Bill Gates actually mention that South Korea did a great job of testing the cases and did not touch down to the massive shutdown situations.
