Bill Gates Says 3rd Shot May Be Needed....

I think Bill Gates has ulterior motives. I think he is involved in the world order type thing. The Elite ruling class.
Last night night he said that we should go 100% beefless by 2035 No burgers, steaks, etc. for the good of the planet.
Oh, by the way....
He has invested heavily in Beyond Meat and Impossible Meat.

It was the CEO of Impossible Foods who made the statement. He’s promoting his business. I have no desire to eat meat substitutes, but can appreciate the value of them for those who want to eat less meat.

The company’s CEO, Patrick Brown, has disclosed his intention to take over animal agriculture at a press briefing on Tuesday.

The Stanford biochemist announced: “We want to completely replace animals as a food production technology by 2035.”

“We are working on producing all foods that we

Further …clarification.

Bill Gates believes the wealthiest countries should switch to eating “100% synthetic beef” in order to help combat climate change.

The second-richest man in the world floated his ideas to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in a new interview with MIT’s Technology Review.

“I do think all rich countries should move to 100% synthetic beef,” Gates said when asked how to cut back on methane emissions. “You can get used to the taste difference, and the claim is they’re going to make it taste even better over time. Eventually, that green premium is modest enough that you can sort of change the [behavior of] people or use regulation to totally shift the demand.”
 

I eat Gardenburgers every so often. Has anyone eaten an Impossible or Beyond Meat burger? The concept sort of grosses me out, I have to admit.
 
I think it is a very complex ecological question. Of the vast amounts of land used to graze food animals on natural growth, very little of it has the type of soil, fertility and natural water such as rainfall to grow plants suitable for human consumption. And I don’t think the millions of people Involved in raising food animals would easily give up their livelihood. I for one have significantly reduced my consumption of animal products and I know quite a few people who have also done so. It I think that if the “rich countries” go to significant decrease or elimination of beef consumption, they aren’t going to be quite so rich, obvious economic impact.
I am certainly in favor of less animal consumption for humane reasons, but realistic enough to feel that there will be an economic impact.And there is still a tremendous need to reduce the amount of industrial methane discharge.

They're actually quite tasty. Although I prefer the Beyond burgers, the Impossibles taste very, very close to beef burgers. I like the complexity of various veggie burgers, too. I only eat these once a month or so though because I've lost my taste for meat-type foods.

It seems so odd that people have aversions to veggie burgers made from grains, beans and veggies, but they have no problems with mystery meats like chicken nuggets, hot dogs, baloney, and canned products like Spam.

Most wealthy nations' citizens now eat animal protein with every meal, whether meat, dairy or eggs. Poorer nations are increasingly mirroring those habits, an unsustainable situation for our planet.

Vilifying the messengers won't change the reality that our planet's health is in peril.

Since you were positive for Covid and had a rough time of it, I'm wondering if you received any cautionary advice before getting the vaccine. A waiting period, perhaps?

Before I was sent to the table where my nurse was waiting, I had to answer some questions, one being, "Did you have a positive COVID test?" I told them yes and they just asked when and I told them on 12/3. I then asked if that was important and the nurse told me that I had to be at least 30 days out, which I was. I told her that I thought that I had read online that the waiting period was 90 days and she said, she hadn't been told that. So, I was given the injection.
 
I apologize for not reading any of these posts. Since Bill Gates is neither a doctor, virologist, neurologist or scientist; he doesn't have a real knowledge or experential platform to speak from. The fact that he's a wealthy media darling who got lucky when he sold an OS to IBM at a time when PCs were on the rise does not give him any real med street cred. That's my $0.02 on the subject.

I become symptomatic with Covid on December 4...I should wait 90 days? Actually, if so then just waiting for the availability of the vaccine will take care of that. My health care provider(Kaiser Permanente) sends regular email update on the vaccine availibility, and so far because of limited supply I wouldn't be eligible for another couple weeks.

Kaiser (So Cal) sent an email to hubby and me that vaccines are available to 65 & older. Hubby went on yesterday and got an appointment for this Friday. Since I'm still suffering with post-Covid symptoms, I'll wait a bit before further burdening my immune system with the vaccine.

I haven't gotten that one yet, just got a Kaiser email on the benefits of fiber...
 
Bill and Melinda Gates are doing more to combat disease and improve living conditions throughout the world than anyone else I have ever heard of. They give away millions of dollars every year, with no benefit to themselves. For one thing, they are trying to eradicate malaria from the world. And they are certainly trying to get the Covid vaccine to everybody who is able to take it.

Good grief, what could possibly be the reason for these comments about two fine people who are trying to use their wealth to help mankind? They should be thanked a thousand times over!

I agree here.

While I thank him for his $$ contribution , I prefer he keep his {ahem, medical opinion/advise] to himself.

Appreciating what people do and taking medical advice from them are two different things.

Bill Gates should just tend to giving his money to charitable causes and not meddle in disciplines of which he has only peripheral knowledge.

Yes, a truly smart man is aware of what he doesn't know and is loathe to overstep the boundaries of his knowledge and experience. Too many people have no clue as to what they don't know.

What makes you think his knowledge is merely peripheral? He makes it his business to be well informed, to consult with experts and to learn all he can about a given matter. He reads at least a book a day, dry non-fiction tomes with endless statistical analyses of whatever issue he's addressing.

Why people love to hate him is beyond me. I can't comment on his running of Microsoft, but that's been in his rear view mirror for a very long time anyway.

What might be his nefarious motives to eradicate Malaria from the planet? To sell programming to people so poor they can't afford mosquito nets? Why vaccinate those who can't even afford a bicycle? At 65 years old already, how much more wealth and influence will he gain from these acts? And why would he bother?

Bill Gates wants to be on top? Ummm.... he already was on top (wealthiest person on the planet until Jeff Bezos passed him in 2017) but decided to start using his wealth, influence, intellect and insatiable intellectual curiosity to benefit those in the most dire need.

You don't see Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg donating money by the billions.

It would be a far better world if more extremely wealthy people followed his example of how to redistribute their wealth for the benefit of mankind.

I don't recall anyone saying that they hate Mr. Gates ...... Only that they would prefer he not voice medical opinion/advise. And if he does, they would likely pay no attention to it.

Isn't Bezos, ... Amazon ? Have you never seen the ad on TV that states they [Amazon] are flying all sorts of things, food, medicine, etc, too millions around the world?

Is that not also extreme generosity ?

I don't dislike or like anybody because they are rich. To imply such is just false.
There are plenty of wealthy people I admire and plenty I don't.
It has to do with the person, their beliefs and agenda.
All I am saying is that people are star struck with Gates and cannot see beneath the covers.
