Heart touching, this is the biggest fear Bill Gates Bill Gates, the gates-IT information

If you ask Bill Gates (Bill Gates), and he'll tell you: "I'm a very optimistic person. "Yes, he has no reason not to optimistic? He is the richest man in the world, his inventions leading to the PC for decades, he runs the Foundation is to help deal with the most serious problem in the world--child mortality, malaria, polio, etc. For him, it becomes simple realism.

You might think that after you become the richest man in the world, should not be too much to Gates horror stuff. But recently a technology media website Vox interview, Gates said he always was a problem of the dark: the next 20 years, what has the potential to kill 10 million people?

Gates cited disaster factors in a film, like Super, Super volcanic eruptions earthquakes and asteroid hit the Earth, but the more we find out about these things, the more he realized that the possibility of occurrence of such disasters is very low. Of course there may be war, but he is not worried about this. Because in the history of mankind has never been short on war fears, even the most dangerous nuclear war, now seems unlikely.

Gates said: " I know that chance in my lifetime to see the outbreak of nuclear war is very low, but more severe than Ebola pandemic likely to exceed 50% per cent . "Gates, now 59 years old. Therefore, this means that a pandemic could erupt in the next decades .

Gates said that, given the bad response to the Ebola epidemic last year, this outbreak might be particularly terrifying. Last year's Ebola outbreak, have been exposed to the world the coming of mass infection outbreak preparedness is so scarce.

The last major outbreak of the culprit is Spain influenza. Between 1918 and 1919, it caused killed 20 million to 40 million people worldwide, exceeds total deaths in the first World War (around 25 million). However, Gates said, is even more fear is, we still don't know what Spain where flu originated. It is called Spain influenza only because Spain media first reported on it.

In many cases, the attacks we are more vulnerable to infectious disease today. Gates said, according to his simulations, from 1918, across the border has increased 50 times today. Coupled with other factors, Gates estimated next Spain-flu epidemic may lead in the 250 days of 33 million people. This figure is equivalent to Canada's population combined.

Gates said: "from a speed standpoint, we have created a history of mankind's most dangerous environments. ”
