Here's the best investment in the world right now, and the West is not taking it: Spend $50 billion to vaccinate people in developing countries worldwide, and, the IMF says, this will generate $9 trillion in economic returns. I hope Biden reads my column

Today, I watched the glass ceiling shatter through the eyes of my son, who saw himself in the daughter of immigrants taking an oath fulfilling the promise of this nation. I'm teeming with hope, that her example is his new normal.

One of the best things we can do to stop the spread of #COVID19 is to spread the facts. The disease is infectious and deadly enough. Misinformation makes it even deadlier, praying on people's understandable fears. We can fight fear with facts.

The world now has much of the science it needs to end this pandemic, and as regulators start to put their stamp of approval on it, the field of action is widening. So how do we deliver this science equitably?

This is a special week @gatesfoundation for a few reasons, but one is that it's the first of 2 weeks of annual Strategy Review meetings. These mtgs are our seminal governance moment because they represent the one time of year when our leadership team evaluates our full portfolio.

That time when Optimus & Bumblebee voted. Among many celebrations at @gatesfoundation we've had to put on pause this year, I will truly miss Halloween. Though probably not as much as my son who picks the theme each year. He & my wife love trying to embarrass me. I enjoy it.
