Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donated $100M to coronavirus relief effort.
I can't even imagine having that kind of $$, but if true, what a wonderful thing they did ...

I thought it was toward developing a vaccine but I could be wrong. He was on CNN saying that the testing should have started in January and that we should be isolating in our homes for about 10 more weeks.

I did not watch but a friend called to tell me he was on CNN for town meeting with Dr. Gupta and Anderson Cooper so I tuned late.
I wouldn't be surprised if that isn't correct as it's just hitting in many states.

The Gates's have been very involved in world health for many years. They also signed a pledge with many other billionaires such as Warren Buffett and Sheryl Sandberg to donate the bulk of their wealth to charitable causes.

@homedecor1 I can't imagine having that kind of money either. For him donating 100 million is a drop in the bucket since he's a multi billionaire!
