Emma Tucker asked Gates why he called it “intriguing”: “Well, we talked about a lot of things. This dinner lasted almost three hours to my great surprise“, he says. The businessman detailed that he discussed with the future president subjects that concern him in his field of health on a global scale: “I talked a lot about HIV and the fact that the foundation (Gates Foundation, Editor’s note) is literally working to develop a cure. We are at an early stage. In times of COVID, it (Trump, NDLR) accelerated vaccine innovation. So I asked him if it was possible to do the same thing here. And we were both, I think, very excited about it.” Gates reported. The two men also spoke about polio and its resurgence in several regions of the world.

“I had the impression that he (Trump, NdlR) was full of energy and eager to contribute to innovation. I was frankly impressed by the interest he showed in the issues I raised“, said Bill Gates during this interview with Emma Tucker.
