Left-wing billionaire Bill Gates has warned that certain social gatherings “may not come back at all” until the public are widely vaccinated.

Gates issued the warning during an appearance on the CBS This Morning podcast on Thursday.

“Which activities, like schools, can be done in a way that the risk of transmission is very low? And which activities, like mass gatherings, may be — in a certain sense — more optional? Until you’re widely vaccinated, those may not come back at all.”
