Will The World Be Back To Normal By The End Of 2022?

WARSAW (Reuters) - The world should be back to normal by the end of 2022 thanks to COVID-19 vaccines, Bill Gates said in an interview for Polish newspaper Gazeta Wyborcza and television broadcaster TVN24. 

“This is an incredible tragedy,” the Microsoft co-founder said on the pandemic, adding that the only good news was the access to vaccines. 

“By the end of 2022 we should be basically completely back to normal,” Gates said. 

Gates, a billionaire who stepped down as chairman of Microsoft Corp in 2014, has through his philanthropic Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation committed at least $1.75 billion to the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

That includes support for some makers of vaccines, diagnostics and potential treatments. 


WNU Editor: I feel the same way. If we are lucky, coupled with the mass distribution of vaccines, this pandemic should burn itself out in a year or two. The biggest concern will then be on how to handle the economic consequences of this disaster, and the sacrifices that will need to be made to manage our  debt/unemployment/and social emergencies.

/We're all so lucky to have elite medical experts like Bill Gates and his wife to tell us when we can "get back to normal".
