Bill Gates: 'I wish I could say that we're halfway through' the coronavirus pandemic. (via CNBCMakeIt)
In the interview with "Today", Gates called out the U.S. government for not ramping up testing for COVID-19 as effectively as other countries.
"Many countries decided that at the national level, they would orchestrate the testing" for COVID-19, he said. "That hasn't happened in the United States. It might not happen. But, you know, the access to tests is just, you know, chaotic."what he believes the U.S. government needs to do to step up testing measures in his blog post on Thursday.
"Testing becomes extremely important as a country considers opening up," Gates wrote, noting that most developed countries will be able to start considering reopening daily life — returning to a "semi-normal" way of life that still includes social-distancing practices — within the next two months.
