Pandemic Predictions: When Warnings Sound Like Plans

Bill Gates:
If anything kills over 10 million people in the next few decades, it’s most likely to be a highly infectious virus. If we get an airborne pandemic and we haven’t built ahead of time some structures to deal with this, millions of people could be adversely impacted.

Dr. Anthony Fauci:
But also, there will be a surprise outbreak. The next administration — there’s no doubt in anyone’s mind — will be faced with the challenges that their predecessor was faced with. Pandemic prevention and preparedness is going to end up being, whether the administration likes it or not, a top priority.

Narrator / News Clip:
Trump is now president. When he faces his first major epidemic, as his prejudices show, he would likely project his impulsivity, xenophobia, and cavalier attitude towards facts to over 52 million followers.

[Unknown Speaker]:
We may again have another pandemic. It is almost inevitable that we will have another pandemic.

Event 201 Introduction:
Welcome to Event 201 — looking like it will be a severe pandemic: coronavirus.

[Unknown Speaker]:
Why don’t we blow the system up and then say, “Hey, everyone in the world should get this new vaccine”? We haven’t given it to anyone yet, but it is not too crazy to think that an outbreak of a novel virus could occur in China somewhere. We could get the RNA sequence from that and print those vaccines on a patch for self-administration.
