Bill Gates releases a jar of mosquitoes in a conference

The billionaire Bill Gates released a Jar of mosquitoes in a California high tech conference. To emphasize a point on the Malaria Prevention, the Microsoft co-founder opened a jar of mosquitoes on stage and let the swarm mingle with audience members. Bill Gates said that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has spent more than $1.4 Billion to fight malaria.

Malaria is preventable and treatable disease that kills more than 1 million people every year. Gates also said that fighting the disease must be a higher priority, noting there’s more money spent on baldness drugs than fighting malaria.

Bill Gates after the release of the mosquitoes said, “There’s no reason only poor people should have the experience.”. He assured the audience that none of the bugs carry malaria.
