In a new interview, Bill Gates spoke about COVID-19 and future Pandemics.

Speaking to CNBC at Germany's annual Munich Security Conference on Friday, he said the danger of experiencing severe disease from COVID-19 has been dramatically reduced.

The chance of severe disease, which is mainly associated with being elderly and having Obesity or Diabetes, is now dramatically reduced because of that infection exposure.

He believes that the world will see another outbreak.

We will have another Pandemic. Gates said that it will be a different pathogen next time.

If there was a rational response, Microsoft would catch it early and it wouldn't go global like it did this time.

Gates said that if every country did what Australia did, there wouldn't be a Pandemic.

Gates has pledged billions of dollars in response to the fight against COVID-19.

He predicted the world would suffer from a flu and disease epidemic.

Gates said in a 2015 talk that the world was not ready for the next epidemic.

The billionaire announced this month that his new book will explore his views on how to prevent the next epidemic.

He became the subject of online conspiracy theories that claimed that he was exploiting the vaccines to implant microchips in people.
