No country’s COVID response gets a top grade, according to Bill Gates

No country’s COVID response gets a top grade, according to Bill Gates. “Nobody, I would say, gets an A on this one,” he said during an event on Monday.However, Gates did point out a few successes in the developed world, commending Australia for taking early action and keeping infection rates and death counts low and the U.S. for its early funding of COVID vaccines.The World Health Organization puts Australia’s COVID death toll at almost 17,000, compared with 1.1 million COVID deaths in the U.S.Gates also shared his views on China: “We’ll never know the true death numbers” coming out of China.Chinese officials estimate that 60,000 people died from COVID-related issues between mid-December and mid-January, but that is likely still an undercount of the outbreak’s death toll.🔗Click the link in bio to read more.
