What is the source of that quote?

I write my own post then back it up with facts. In this case it was Dr Fauci's testmony before congress which is in the public domain. Sorry, forgot where I got it but a web search should turn it up. Gates was opposed to the travel ban to China last Spring which according to Dr Fauci saved thousands of Americans lives. Other nations quickly followed our example and instituted travel bans to China. (Think of it as social distancing between nations). Had Gates advice been taken many more would have died as in NY where Cumo sent covid infected people to nursing homes. Some say Gates predicted a pandemic but he had no medical knowledge to make that forecast. There was a report that China was careless at the Wuhan lab in bat experiments and perhaps that was the basis of his prediction. But if he really believed his prediction why didnt he use his charitable foundation to make N95 masks which were going to be desperately needed. Instead he funds WHO and their China coverup of how the virus started.

Apparently, I stepped on someones toes (not you) when I suggested people hate Gates because of Windows 10 but I didnt realize anyone took Gates seriously for medical advice. You seem very knowledgeable about Windows 10 so perhaps it has improved a lot since being released. I am going to stick with Windows 7 however as it meets my needs which is mainly photo editing with Photoshop.

So if you are a Snowbird from another State and not a permanent Florida resident, you cannot receive the vaccine in Florida???

I don't think anybody knows the answer to that just yet. But I'm thinking that yes "most" likely you will be able to get it. Don't run back up north. Lets see what the plan is going to be.

Marion county one of the largest in the state.

I had to reconfigure win10 after I bought a computer that came with it, to make it emulate win95, which is how I had win7 configured. I'm a DOS baby, my first love. Second love was win 3.11 for workgroups. After that, it's all just inconvenient detail.

But win10 works fine now, they've gotten the kinks out of it and their security suite is actually superior to Norton, AV, and McAffee. There is -no- security suite that works efficiently with win7 anymore, it is considered obsolete and unsupported. So if you use win7 to access the internet at all - e-mail, browsing, anything - you are vulnerable.

You're right that Bill Gates is not a doctor. But he is a scientist. He has studied more in the last 10 years about medical science than most doctors will study about it in a lifetime. Not about medicine, per se. But about the science of medicine. He is an actual expert on many subjects. Even on toilets. The man is truly amazing, a more "hip" earthly (non-quantum) version of Stephen Hawking.

Thanks for the info on the antivirus suites.
I had Norton and got a virus that took a picture of me with my computer camera then sent me an email with my picture saying I was wanted by the FBI and had to send $300 to clear my name. My neighbor fell for it but negotiated it down to $100.

I had to take my computer to MMM to get rid of the virus and they installed Malwarebytes antivirus which still works and is free.

Most of the time I use my Ipad or Kindle and don't want to spend the money on a new computer if I can help it.
