Gates,\u2063 now seen\u200c as an influential player in \u200bglobal health and climate\u200d issues, expressed that the dismantling\u200b of\u200b USAID could \u200bresult in &#8220;literally millions of deaths,&#8221; due to the organization&#8217;s role in \u2064facilitating vital health and nutrition programs,\u2063 including vaccination\u200d efforts. While \u200dGates acknowledges Musk&#8217;s innovative tendencies,he fears that\u200b private sector approaches may overlook \u2062the achievements of established agencies like \u2063USAID.The \u2064piece critiques Gates&#8217; \u2063hyperbolic claims\u200b and suggests that vaccination\u200c and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">health crisis mitigation<\/a> can continue effectively outside of USAID&#8217;s structure. It also points out openness issues within USAID that have prompted calls for its overhaul, highlighting a broader debate about the effectiveness and management of global\u2063 aid initiatives.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Pour one out for poor Bill Gates.<\/p>\n<p>Gates, the Microsoft gazillionaire who has officially taken the leap from &ldquo;global philanthropist&rdquo; to &ldquo;supranational, self-appointed health and climate official,&rdquo; has been seen using his money and influence on the world stage to peddle ideas like geoengineering to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/white-house-opens-door-bill-gates-style-sun-dimming-plan-fight-climate-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&ldquo;dim&rdquo; the sun<\/a> and cool the planet or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/usda-decides-bill-gates-approved-fake-meat-cancer-tumors-totally-safe-eat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">push lab-made meat<\/a> upon us, ostensibly to solve the same problem.<\/p>\n<p>In the latest of his weird Bond villain ideas, Gates&rsquo; charity, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, approved a grant to research turning mosquitoes into &ldquo;flying vaccinators,&rdquo; a move which, in no way, sounds like something out of the first ten chapters of a Michael Crichton novel, before things go wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Clearly, this is a man who needs access to avenues to distribute money and global reach to export these grand schemes &mdash; two things, just coincidentally, that USAID, the government agency currently in the process of being shuttered by the Trump administration, provides his charity.<\/p>\n<p>And, now that Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency are in the process of rolling up USAID&rsquo;s work, Gates is complaining to the ladies of &ldquo;The View&rdquo; that the move could cause &ldquo;literally millions of deaths.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p> <script type=\"text\/javascript\"> \t\t\tif ( getCookie( \"ff_subbed\" ) ) { \t\t\t\tdocument.getElementById(\"stnvideo\").remove() \t\t\t} \t\t<\/script> <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Well, Elon, his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-rescinds-trumps-apprenticeship-plan-by-executive-order\/\" title=\"Biden Rescinds Trump\u2019s Apprenticeship Plan By Executive Order\">private sector work<\/a>, you know, has been very innovative, really fantastic,&rdquo; Gates said in a Tuesday appearance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/whoopi-goldberg-karoline-leavitt-get-skin-crashes-burns-view-meltdown\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on the gab-fest<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;A lot of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/gates-suggests-musk-doesnt-see-usaids-good-work\/\" title=\"... suggests Musk doesn\u2019t see ...&#039;s \u2018...\u2019\">private sector people<\/a>, when they get into government, they don&rsquo;t take the time necessarily to see what the good work is or why it&rsquo;s structured the way it is, so I&rsquo;m a little worried, particularly with this USAID stuff,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;My foundation partners with USAID on nutrition and getting vaccines out, and, you know, there&rsquo;s incredible people,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;You know, they&rsquo;re not actually worms that work there.
