BILL GATES WARNS THAT “CONSTANT MONITORING” MAY BE NEEDED — AND THE NEXT PANDEMIC COULD BE WORSE

In a recent interview, Bill Gates argued that preventing the next global health crisis will require far more extensive monitoring, including measures such as “sewage surveillance” and real-time tracking of respiratory infections.

He noted that the world has not yet built such a system.

He then added that another pandemic is likely — and that it could be even worse than COVID-19. The question is: where is the line between sensible public-health protection and a future of constant surveillance?
