  • In an interview withWired, Gates said that "the majority of all U.S. tests are completely garbage" and take too long to get results.
  • Gates has been heavily involved in efforts to combat the virus, and helped fund a testing program he says is faster and more efficient.
  • He also believes the coronavirus is "very vaccine preventable", but warns that "3-4 months of Phase 3 testing" is needed for the vaccines currently in development. He also says remdesivir and dexamethasone treatments have been effective.
