After the wave of the omicron coronavirus strain in the countries of the world, the number of infections will decline, and COVID-19 will be treated as a seasonal disease. This opinion was expressed by the founder of Microsoft, billionaire Bill Gates.

According to him, during the period of the spread of the omicron, health care systems will experience difficulties, and most of the severe cases will be in unvaccinated people. Gates also noted that coronavirus vaccines are needed that work for many years to prevent re-infection.

The billionaire did not rule out that in the future there will also be outbreaks of diseases, "so we must invest to prepare for them," RIA Novosti quotes.

We will remind, in December last year, Gates suggested that the coronavirus pandemic could end as early as 2022. He noted that at this time everyone should take care of each other, especially the most vulnerable: wear masks, avoid large gatherings in the premises, get vaccinated. He added that we need to take the omicron seriously until we know more about it.
