Bill Gates said we should be back to normal by end of 2022. How does he know when it will be over.

No idea, Sal!

giletrouge · 25/03/2021 10:09

I expect he does what we all do - study what's known and extrapolate. However he does have access to the best advice and information and he does concern himself with these matters, and as he is who he is his opinion gets relayed far and wide. But saying that we should be back to normal is not the same as saying I know we'll be back to normal, so it is only an opinion and presented as such.
Why do you ask?

pinkunicornwithacatonitsback · 25/03/2021 10:13

Because he's been running the whole thing, and knows that the end of 22 is when the entire global population will be microchipped.....Hmm

sarcasm of course

MysweetAudrina · 25/03/2021 10:15

That would be my reckoning too.

@MysweetAudrina

Not at all clear what this comment refers to. WHAT would be your reckoning?
MysweetAudrina · 25/03/2021 10:35

That we will be back to normal by end of 2022.

ImTheWolfToday · 25/03/2021 10:36

The whole plandemic, micro chipping etc nonsense of course...

Or that he’s done a lot of philanthropic work around disease over the years, likely has plenty of access to experts, maybe even has done some reading around it and it in agreement with what most scientists seem to think. One or the other...

enjoyingscience · 25/03/2021 10:38

Dear Sal,

Perhaps he’s a very well connected and well informed person who runs a global health foundation? Many people have made predictions as to when this will ‘all be over’, few of which have caused any alarm with their predictions.

All the best,
Enjoying science

Lumene · 25/03/2021 11:28

How did you know he’s right there Sal?

Eh?

Are you in cahoots with Bill?

Cushionsnotpillows · 25/03/2021 11:30

"Should" is not the same as "will" Sal.

I smell paranoia.

He phones the lizard king of course!

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 25/03/2021 11:55

He may be right but I suspect he'll come out with a Pandemic 3.1 and we'll all have to start again... [sigh]

What does this mean? It's as if you think BG is responsible for the pandemic?
MrsHastingslikethebattle · 25/03/2021 12:05

Hes right, well should be.

Theres no reason why things shouldn't be back to normal by the end of this year as mostly everyone will be vaccinated.

StarCat2020 · 25/03/2021 12:08

@Nerdygirl
Love it!

WithTeaTree · 25/03/2021 12:11

Because he’s secretly behind it all obviously. I didn’t think so but I had the vaccine at the weekend and since then I’ve purchased a dozen copies of Microsoft Office and I’ve started telling everyone Chrome is shit.

TwoBreakingIntoOne · 25/03/2021 12:13

All our chips will be activated by then

Can you explain it? Or is it some kind of secret message?

DifficultPifcultLemonDifficult · 25/03/2021 12:15

Maybe he is a time traveller 🤷‍♀️

ChelseeDagger · 25/03/2021 12:20

Well its a fair assumption that we will have Covid under control by the end of 2022, if not before.

I am certain that BG is very pleased that he has invested such large sums in vaccines in such a timely manner.

He also allegedly said that the 'next pandemic' will really make people sit up and take notice. As if this one hasn't Bill Confused

Sadless · 25/03/2021 12:33

It's so far away was kind of hoping for some normal sooner then nearly 23. Think I will go crazy before then.
