WEBVTT FILE 1 00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:01.280 today we're going to study some 2 00:00:01.280 --> 00:00:03.520 vocabulary and some idioms together 3 00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:06.000 watching a news clip on youtube it's 4 00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:08.240 anderson cooper interviewing bill gates 5 00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:11.039 on covid19 some of the therapies that 6 00:00:11.039 --> 00:00:13.039 are being developed and what the fall is 7 00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:15.360 going to look like a very current topic 8 00:00:15.360 --> 00:00:16.880 something that's on a lot of people's 9 00:00:16.880 --> 00:00:17.920 minds 10 00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:19.359 you're going to hear some words that 11 00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:22.079 relate specifically to covid19 but also 12 00:00:22.079 --> 00:00:24.720 just some more advanced vocabulary words 13 00:00:24.720 --> 00:00:26.720 that can help your english sound more 14 00:00:26.720 --> 00:00:28.880 sophisticated i think learning english 15 00:00:28.880 --> 00:00:31.279 this way is a great way because when you 16 00:00:31.279 --> 00:00:33.600 learn a word in a context like this i 17 00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.079 think it makes it easier to remember 18 00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:38.239 as always if you like this video or you 19 00:00:38.239 --> 00:00:40.159 learned something new please like it 20 00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:42.479 give it a thumbs up and subscribe with 21 00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:46.319 notifications it really helps 22 00:00:48.239 --> 00:00:50.159 let's talk about the format of this 23 00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:52.399 video you're going to watch a clip and 24 00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:54.640 on screen there will be white words with 25 00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:56.960 a red outline those are the words that 26 00:00:56.960 --> 00:00:59.440 we'll study after we watch the clip like 27 00:00:59.440 --> 00:01:00.480 this 28 00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:02.960 that's always been the most promising 29 00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:05.040 therapeutic category the other 30 00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:07.200 therapeutic categories the antivirals 31 00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:09.040 like rendez-spheres only had modest 32 00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:10.240 benefit 33 00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:12.159 then after the clip you and i will go 34 00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:14.240 over it in depth together looking at the 35 00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:16.319 pronunciation the meaning and the 36 00:01:16.319 --> 00:01:18.560 context of the word or phrase so that 37 00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:20.479 you'll definitely understand it and 38 00:01:20.479 --> 00:01:21.680 remember it 39 00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:23.920 the first clip is the question that mr 40 00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:26.720 cooper asks it's 45 seconds long let's 41 00:01:26.720 --> 00:01:28.319 take a look 42 00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:29.759 coronavirus death told the united states 43 00:01:29.759 --> 00:01:32.159 is now more than 212 000 people in this 44 00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:34.078 country total number of cases more than 45 00:01:34.078 --> 00:01:37.119 7.5 million staggering numbers of course 46 00:01:37.119 --> 00:01:38.560 there's precious little sign of things 47 00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:40.240 slowing down add to that president 48 00:01:40.240 --> 00:01:41.759 trump's diagnosis the high infection 49 00:01:41.759 --> 00:01:43.360 numbers the white house the overall lag 50 00:01:43.360 --> 00:01:46.319 and widespread testing contact tracing 51 00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:47.759 it's certainly a recipe for concern as 52 00:01:47.759 --> 00:01:49.680 the fall begins in the winter bill gates 53 00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:51.200 is joining us he's co-chair of the bill 54 00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:53.200 and melinda gates foundation has long 55 00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:55.280 put his fortune and talent behind 56 00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:56.799 searching for cures for this global 57 00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:58.719 health crisis and for other global 58 00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:00.159 health crisis 59 00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:01.600 he joins me now bill thanks for being 60 00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:02.640 with us 61 00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:04.880 looking at where the u.s is right now in 62 00:02:04.880 --> 00:02:06.719 this pandemic and during the fall in the 63 00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:08.639 winter cases on the rise not just in 64 00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:10.239 small clusters but 65 00:02:10.239 --> 00:02:12.879 across most of the nation how concerned 66 00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.959 are you about the months ahead 67 00:02:14.959 --> 00:02:17.840 wow okay lots of words to learn there 68 00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:20.959 the first was death toll the coronavirus 69 00:02:20.959 --> 00:02:22.319 death toll the united states is now more 70 00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.280 than 212 000 people in this country 71 00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:27.760 death toll this refers to the number of 72 00:02:27.760 --> 00:02:29.760 people who died in relation to a 73 00:02:29.760 --> 00:02:31.680 particular event for example here the 74 00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:34.000 coronavirus pandemic or it could be a 75 00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.319 natural disaster like an earthquake or a 76 00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:37.599 tsunami 77 00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:39.840 death toll we have an unvoiced th the 78 00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:41.200 tongue tip does have to come through the 79 00:02:41.200 --> 00:02:42.319 teeth there 80 00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:44.000 death 81 00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:45.760 and then you'll go right into a true tea 82 00:02:45.760 --> 00:02:48.400 now the word tol has the o as a no 83 00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:50.080 diphthong but when it's followed by a 84 00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:53.440 dark l like it is here it's not toe 85 00:02:53.440 --> 00:02:54.480 toe 86 00:02:54.480 --> 00:02:55.440 toe 87 00:02:55.440 --> 00:02:57.599 but it's 88 00:02:57.599 --> 00:02:59.599 a little bit more rounded tongue pulled 89 00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:01.440 back a little bit more 90 00:03:01.440 --> 00:03:04.639 death toll let's watch that clip again 91 00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:06.159 the coronavirus death toll united states 92 00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:08.560 is now more than 212 000 people in this 93 00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:10.239 country 94 00:03:10.239 --> 00:03:12.239 let's go on to the next clip total 95 00:03:12.239 --> 00:03:13.680 number of cases more than seven and a 96 00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:14.879 half million 97 00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:16.560 cases this word has a couple of 98 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:18.480 different uses but in this particular 99 00:03:18.480 --> 00:03:21.440 case it means an instance of something 100 00:03:21.440 --> 00:03:23.599 an occurrence of something in other 101 00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.400 words one person who has the coronavirus 102 00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:28.400 that would be a case and all of the 103 00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:30.639 people would be a bunch of cases people 104 00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:32.720 who have the coronavirus let's listen 105 00:03:32.720 --> 00:03:33.680 again 106 00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:35.360 total number of cases more than seven 107 00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:36.720 and a half million 108 00:03:36.720 --> 00:03:39.040 let's keep going staggering numbers of 109 00:03:39.040 --> 00:03:40.000 course 110 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.799 staggering means overwhelming a huge 111 00:03:42.799 --> 00:03:45.920 amount a very large number let's watch 112 00:03:45.920 --> 00:03:46.799 again 113 00:03:46.799 --> 00:03:49.840 staggering numbers of course 114 00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:51.840 our next clip there's precious little 115 00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:54.000 sign of things slowing down precious 116 00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:55.760 little you might also hear the term 117 00:03:55.760 --> 00:03:58.560 precious few this means very little a 118 00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:00.560 very little amount of something 119 00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:02.720 extremely low number let's watch this 120 00:04:02.720 --> 00:04:04.799 clip again there's precious little sign 121 00:04:04.799 --> 00:04:07.040 of things slowing down 122 00:04:07.040 --> 00:04:09.120 precious little sign means 123 00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:11.920 really no sign at all if anything just a 124 00:04:11.920 --> 00:04:13.840 very very small sign but there's 125 00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:15.760 precious little evidence that the 126 00:04:15.760 --> 00:04:18.160 pandemic is slowing down let's go to our 127 00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:20.400 next clip 128 00:04:20.400 --> 00:04:22.079 add to that president trump's diagnosis 129 00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:23.360 the high infection numbers the white 130 00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:25.279 house a couple words here first 131 00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:28.960 diagnosis this is when you figure out a 132 00:04:28.960 --> 00:04:30.960 problem or an issue specifically by 133 00:04:30.960 --> 00:04:32.800 looking at the different clues for 134 00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:35.440 example in medicine if someone is sick 135 00:04:35.440 --> 00:04:37.199 you look at the different ways in which 136 00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:39.199 they're sick what hurts what happens 137 00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:40.880 what are their blood levels this kind of 138 00:04:40.880 --> 00:04:42.400 thing and you look at all of that 139 00:04:42.400 --> 00:04:44.560 information and you can make a diagnosis 140 00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:46.560 based on that information we think you 141 00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:48.639 have this disease 142 00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:50.639 it can also be used for 143 00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:52.560 for example the word problem we need to 144 00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.040 diagnose the problem let's say something 145 00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:57.040 is wrong with my car it's not working i 146 00:04:57.040 --> 00:04:59.040 don't know what i have to get in there 147 00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:00.639 and look at what specifically is 148 00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:01.520 happening 149 00:05:01.520 --> 00:05:03.680 well it looks like nothing happens when 150 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:05.680 i turn the key okay i'm going to make 151 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:07.759 the diagnosis that my car needs a new 152 00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:11.120 battery diagnosis let's watch again 153 00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:12.800 add to that president trump's diagnosis 154 00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:14.080 the high infection numbers the white 155 00:05:14.080 --> 00:05:15.680 house 156 00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:17.520 infection numbers 157 00:05:17.520 --> 00:05:19.360 the number of people that are infected 158 00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:21.120 what does this mean well infected just 159 00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:24.479 means sick in this case got the disease 160 00:05:24.479 --> 00:05:26.400 let's watch that one more time 161 00:05:26.400 --> 00:05:28.080 add to that president trump's diagnosis 162 00:05:28.080 --> 00:05:29.360 the high infection numbers the white 163 00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:31.199 house 164 00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.440 let's go on to our next clip the overall 165 00:05:33.440 --> 00:05:36.240 lag in widespread testing contact 166 00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:37.279 tracing 167 00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:39.839 to lag means to fall behind so this 168 00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:42.000 could be either a goal that you have 169 00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:43.600 you're falling behind your goal you're 170 00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:45.600 lagging or it can mean compared to 171 00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:46.960 someone else 172 00:05:46.960 --> 00:05:49.360 for example in a race maybe you're 173 00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:50.720 winning the race and you're running 174 00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:52.800 right next to somebody and then 175 00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:54.320 when you're getting close again you 176 00:05:54.320 --> 00:05:56.240 start to feel tired you can't keep up 177 00:05:56.240 --> 00:05:58.639 you start to lag behind just a little 178 00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:01.199 bit let's listen to this example again 179 00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:04.000 the overall lag in widespread testing 180 00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:06.400 contact tracing it's 181 00:06:06.400 --> 00:06:08.960 a lag in widespread testing what does 182 00:06:08.960 --> 00:06:12.080 widespread mean it means something that 183 00:06:12.080 --> 00:06:14.479 many people are doing or feeling for 184 00:06:14.479 --> 00:06:17.520 example if a mayor is very popular of 185 00:06:17.520 --> 00:06:19.600 the town you could say that mayor has 186 00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:21.600 widespread support 187 00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:23.600 most of the people lots of people 188 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:26.800 support that so widespread testing means 189 00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:29.039 most people getting tested many tests 190 00:06:29.039 --> 00:06:31.279 happening in this case we're lagging 191 00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:33.360 behind so that's not happening we're not 192 00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:36.479 meeting the goal of widespread testing 193 00:06:36.479 --> 00:06:39.279 the overall lag in widespread testing 194 00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:41.600 contact tracing it's 195 00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:44.080 what is contact tracing this is when 196 00:06:44.080 --> 00:06:46.240 someone is sick and you go back and you 197 00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.720 look at the window where they might have 198 00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:50.960 gotten sick and you try to find out 199 00:06:50.960 --> 00:06:53.120 everyone that they were in contact with 200 00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:54.720 then you reach out to those people you 201 00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:56.800 see are any of them sick when you find 202 00:06:56.800 --> 00:06:59.120 somebody who's sick you think okay maybe 203 00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.440 this is how that person got sick so 204 00:07:01.440 --> 00:07:03.440 you're going back to everyone that 205 00:07:03.440 --> 00:07:05.599 somebody was in contact with and you're 206 00:07:05.599 --> 00:07:08.400 trying to find out who's sick who else 207 00:07:08.400 --> 00:07:10.639 might have gotten sick and you find that 208 00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:13.120 path of how the infection was passed so 209 00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:15.440 you can understand how it's spreading 210 00:07:15.440 --> 00:07:17.599 let's listen one more time the overall 211 00:07:17.599 --> 00:07:20.400 lag in widespread testing contact 212 00:07:20.400 --> 00:07:22.160 tracing it's 213 00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:24.160 and let's move on now 214 00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:25.680 it's certainly a recipe for concern as 215 00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:27.520 the fall begins in the winter if 216 00:07:27.520 --> 00:07:29.360 something is a recipe for something then 217 00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:31.840 that means it's likely to lead to it you 218 00:07:31.840 --> 00:07:33.360 may have heard the phrase a recipe for 219 00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:35.840 disaster it's a pretty common phrase and 220 00:07:35.840 --> 00:07:37.840 it means what we're seeing 221 00:07:37.840 --> 00:07:40.080 makes it seem like it's very likely that 222 00:07:40.080 --> 00:07:42.160 a disaster will happen 223 00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:43.680 let's say for example you have little 224 00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:44.720 kids 225 00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:47.280 um your toddler skipped his nap didn't 226 00:07:47.280 --> 00:07:49.759 eat lunch you can say oh this is a 227 00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:52.479 recipe for disaster your kid is probably 228 00:07:52.479 --> 00:07:53.840 going to have a meltdown and you're 229 00:07:53.840 --> 00:07:55.840 going to have a difficult day let's 230 00:07:55.840 --> 00:07:57.759 listen to how he used it again certainly 231 00:07:57.759 --> 00:07:59.680 a recipe for concern as the fall begins 232 00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:01.199 in the winter 233 00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:03.680 a recipe for concern so everything 234 00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:06.639 that's going on is leading to 235 00:08:06.639 --> 00:08:09.599 a call to be concerned it will likely 236 00:08:09.599 --> 00:08:11.840 make people concerned when they see that 237 00:08:11.840 --> 00:08:14.400 there's not enough contact tracing not 238 00:08:14.400 --> 00:08:18.000 enough testing it's a recipe for concern 239 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:19.520 certainly a recipe for concern as the 240 00:08:19.520 --> 00:08:22.319 fall begins in the winter 241 00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:24.400 let's go on to the next clip 242 00:08:24.400 --> 00:08:26.240 bill gates is joining us he's co-chair 243 00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:28.479 of the bill and melinda gates foundation 244 00:08:28.479 --> 00:08:30.560 co-chair this means he's sharing the 245 00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:32.719 position of chair he's not the only 246 00:08:32.719 --> 00:08:34.880 chair of the foundation and the chair of 247 00:08:34.880 --> 00:08:36.399 the foundation would be one of the 248 00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:38.640 people who leads it you might have also 249 00:08:38.640 --> 00:08:41.039 heard the phrase co-pilot so that means 250 00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:41.919 there's 251 00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:43.839 more than one pilot more than one person 252 00:08:43.839 --> 00:08:46.320 in charge of flying the plane let's 253 00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:48.160 listen to this example again 254 00:08:48.160 --> 00:08:50.080 bill gates is joining us he's co-chair 255 00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:52.800 of the bill and melinda gates foundation 256 00:08:52.800 --> 00:08:54.399 and let's keep going 257 00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:56.559 so long put his fortune and talent 258 00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:58.080 behind searching for cures for this 259 00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:00.240 global health crisis and 260 00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.120 fortune this means a lot of money a lot 261 00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:05.360 of wealth bill gates is certainly 262 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:07.839 sitting on a fortune he's made a lot of 263 00:09:07.839 --> 00:09:09.839 money in his lifetime let's listen to 264 00:09:09.839 --> 00:09:11.839 this example again 265 00:09:11.839 --> 00:09:14.160 long put his fortune and talent behind 266 00:09:14.160 --> 00:09:15.679 searching for cures for this global 267 00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:17.920 health crisis 268 00:09:17.920 --> 00:09:20.080 talent just means skill 269 00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.080 something that you're good at he's run a 270 00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:24.399 company and he runs a foundation and now 271 00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:27.040 he's using that talent that skill to try 272 00:09:27.040 --> 00:09:30.240 to help the world find a cure for covet 273 00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:33.279 19 coronavirus and that takes me to cure 274 00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:35.120 what does this word mean it means to 275 00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:37.760 relieve the symptoms of a disease 276 00:09:37.760 --> 00:09:39.440 you could say he's cured of the disease 277 00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:41.519 he no longer has the disease let's 278 00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:43.120 listen one more time 279 00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:45.200 so long put his fortune and talent 280 00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:46.800 behind searching for cures for this 281 00:09:46.800 --> 00:09:49.200 global health crisis 282 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:50.958 and let's keep going 283 00:09:50.958 --> 00:09:52.880 health crisis and for other global 284 00:09:52.880 --> 00:09:54.480 health crisis 285 00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:56.800 a crisis it's when things have gotten 286 00:09:56.800 --> 00:09:59.519 bad it's dramatic 287 00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:02.480 we are desperate to find an answer let's 288 00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:04.480 listen to how he uses it again 289 00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:06.480 health crisis and for other global 290 00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:08.720 health crisis 291 00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:10.399 so he calls what we're in a health 292 00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.600 crisis and then he goes on to say 293 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:16.559 other global health crisis health crisis 294 00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:19.920 and for other global health crisis 295 00:10:19.920 --> 00:10:21.679 so really that probably should have been 296 00:10:21.679 --> 00:10:24.240 plural and the plural isn't crisis it's 297 00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:27.200 crises so this is a word where the 298 00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:29.519 plural changes one of the vowel sounds 299 00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:33.600 in the word so crisis singular crises 300 00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:36.720 is plural so it's not crisises but 301 00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:39.440 crises let's listen one more time again 302 00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.440 the last time he says it he probably 303 00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:44.320 should have used the plural crises 304 00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:46.320 health crisis and for other global 305 00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:48.800 health crisis 306 00:10:48.800 --> 00:10:50.559 let's keep going 307 00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:52.000 he joins me now bill thanks for being 308 00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:53.040 with us 309 00:10:53.040 --> 00:10:55.279 looking at where the u.s is right now in 310 00:10:55.279 --> 00:10:57.120 this pandemic and during the fall in the 311 00:10:57.120 --> 00:10:59.040 winter cases on the rise not just in 312 00:10:59.040 --> 00:11:00.640 small clusters but 313 00:11:00.640 --> 00:11:03.600 across most of the nation a cluster is a 314 00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:05.679 group of something so for example a 315 00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:08.000 cluster of bananas it grows in a tight 316 00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:09.519 bunch a group 317 00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:12.399 so when the coronavirus is in little 318 00:11:12.399 --> 00:11:14.240 clusters then that means it hasn't 319 00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:17.040 really spread too far and wide yet this 320 00:11:17.040 --> 00:11:18.880 group of people has it this group of 321 00:11:18.880 --> 00:11:20.720 people has it and you hope that that's 322 00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:22.480 how it stays you hope it doesn't spread 323 00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.480 further than that but in this case he's 324 00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:26.399 talking about how it has 325 00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:28.000 pieces on the rise not just in small 326 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:29.279 clusters but 327 00:11:29.279 --> 00:11:32.240 across most of the nation 328 00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:34.720 not just in small clusters unfortunately 329 00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:36.800 but it's really spread let's listen one 330 00:11:36.800 --> 00:11:38.720 more time cases on the rise not just in 331 00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:40.320 small clusters but 332 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:43.120 across most of the nation 333 00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:44.640 let's keep going 334 00:11:44.640 --> 00:11:46.320 how concerned are you about the months 335 00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:47.440 ahead 336 00:11:47.440 --> 00:11:48.559 now i want to talk about the 337 00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:52.320 pronunciation of the word months 338 00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:55.120 he dropped the th sound and instead made 339 00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:58.639 a t sound months months months months 340 00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:00.800 and this is a common pronunciation we'll 341 00:12:00.800 --> 00:12:03.839 hear bill gates use it later so it's not 342 00:12:03.839 --> 00:12:05.120 months 343 00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.040 that's a little bit more work and effort 344 00:12:07.040 --> 00:12:09.200 and most native speakers will not put 345 00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:11.040 the tongue tip through we'll make a tea 346 00:12:11.040 --> 00:12:13.519 instead months let's listen again how 347 00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:15.839 concerned are you about the months ahead 348 00:12:15.839 --> 00:12:17.360 one of the things we talked about there 349 00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:19.920 was the pronunciation of the word months 350 00:12:19.920 --> 00:12:21.679 and that got me thinking about 351 00:12:21.679 --> 00:12:23.440 pronunciation i know if you're watching 352 00:12:23.440 --> 00:12:25.440 this video if you follow this channel 353

00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:34.000 back to this interview we have the 385 00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:37.279 answer mr gates speaks for 45 seconds 386 00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:38.880 answering the question 387 00:13:38.880 --> 00:13:40.639 well i'm very concerned 388 00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:42.559 the forecast showed that the 389 00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:44.958 deaths are going to go back up almost to 390 00:13:44.958 --> 00:13:46.399 the level they were 391 00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:48.639 in the spring and 392 00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:50.078 you know it's people are going to be 393 00:13:50.078 --> 00:13:53.679 indoors more uh the compliance with the 394 00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:56.639 distancing and the mass use is 395 00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:58.800 going down in many areas that never got 396 00:13:58.800 --> 00:14:01.120 super good in some areas 397 00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:04.399 and so except for the innovative tools 398 00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:06.480 that i'm sure we'll talk about this is 399 00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:08.160 going to be a very difficult fall 400 00:14:08.160 --> 00:14:09.120 because 401 00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:12.320 people you know the economic effects the 402 00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:14.480 uh tiredness the 403 00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:17.279 kids not being able to go to school 404 00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:19.279 this continuation 405 00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:23.199 is a very difficult thing 406 00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:26.880 well i'm very concerned 407 00:14:26.880 --> 00:14:29.839 so concerned means worried feeling 408 00:14:29.839 --> 00:14:31.839 anxious about something 409 00:14:31.839 --> 00:14:34.480 let's listen again 410 00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:36.959 well i'm very concerned 411 00:14:36.959 --> 00:14:39.360 very concerned let's keep listening to 412 00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:42.000 see what is bill gates very concerned 413 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:43.120 about 414 00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:45.120 the forecast showed that the 415 00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:47.440 deaths are going to go back up almost to 416 00:14:47.440 --> 00:14:48.880 the level they were 417 00:14:48.880 --> 00:14:50.720 in the spring 418 00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:53.360 forecast means predictions what we think 419 00:14:53.360 --> 00:14:56.000 will happen what the experts think will 420 00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:57.920 happen based on what they know let's 421 00:14:57.920 --> 00:14:59.040 listen again 422 00:14:59.040 --> 00:15:01.279 uh the forecast showed that the 423 00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:03.600 deaths are going to go back up almost to 424 00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:05.120 the level they were 425 00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:07.279 in the spring 426 00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:08.959 let's keep going 427 00:15:08.959 --> 00:15:10.000 and 428 00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:11.360 you know it's people are going to be 429 00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:14.959 indoors more uh the compliance with the 430 00:15:14.959 --> 00:15:18.000 distancing and the mass use is 431 00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:20.399 going down in many areas compliance 432 00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:22.480 means following the rules are people 433 00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.079 doing what they're supposed to be doing 434 00:15:24.079 --> 00:15:26.399 if so then they're compliant 435 00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:28.480 if not then we have a problem with 436 00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:29.839 compliance 437 00:15:29.839 --> 00:15:30.880 and 438 00:15:30.880 --> 00:15:32.240 you know it's people are going to be 439 00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:35.839 indoors more uh the compliance with the 440 00:15:35.839 --> 00:15:38.880 distancing and the mass use is 441 00:15:38.880 --> 00:15:42.000 going down in many areas 442 00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:44.160 distancing now this is a word that i 443 00:15:44.160 --> 00:15:46.399 didn't hear or use very much prior to 444 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:49.279 the pandemic distance as a noun so it 445 00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:50.800 just means the amount of space 446 00:15:50.800 --> 00:15:53.040 distancing and you'll hear the phrase 447 00:15:53.040 --> 00:15:56.160 social distancing and that refers to 448 00:15:56.160 --> 00:15:58.079 what we're being told to do which is six 449 00:15:58.079 --> 00:16:00.639 feet apart maintain six feet apart from 450 00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:03.120 other people when indoors if you're not 451 00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:05.040 wearing a mask especially 452 00:16:05.040 --> 00:16:07.360 distancing let's listen again 453 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:08.399 and 454 00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:09.839 you know it's people are going to be 455 00:16:09.839 --> 00:16:13.360 indoors more uh the compliance with the 456 00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:16.399 distancing and the mass use is 457 00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:18.320 going down in many areas 458 00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:21.440 it never got super good in some areas 459 00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:24.720 and so except for the innovative tools 460 00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:26.639 that i'm sure we'll talk about 461 00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:28.160 innovative means 462 00:16:28.160 --> 00:16:30.079 creative something that wasn't there 463 00:16:30.079 --> 00:16:32.320 before something very new 464 00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:34.320 and so an innovative tool would be 465 00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:36.720 starting from scratch not with 466 00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:38.639 what we already have established but 467 00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:40.880 something brand new 468 00:16:40.880 --> 00:16:42.399 innovative 469 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:45.600 and so except for the innovative tools 470 00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:48.800 that i'm sure we'll talk about this 471 00:16:48.800 --> 00:16:50.880 the innovative tools for treating this 472 00:16:50.880 --> 00:16:52.000 disease 473 00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:54.320 tools that were not there before let's 474 00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:55.759 listen one more time 475 00:16:55.759 --> 00:16:58.959 and so except for the innovative tools 476 00:16:58.959 --> 00:17:02.160 that i'm sure we'll talk about this 477 00:17:02.160 --> 00:17:04.400 and let's keep going 478 00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:06.160 this is going to be a very difficult 479 00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:07.359 fall because 480 00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:10.640 people you know the economic effects the 481 00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:12.799 uh tiredness the 482 00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:15.199 kids not being able to go to school 483 00:17:15.199 --> 00:17:17.280 the economic effects what are the 484 00:17:17.280 --> 00:17:19.359 impacts that are being felt 485 00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:21.679 on the economy well a lot of businesses 486 00:17:21.679 --> 00:17:23.359 have shut down lots of people have lost 487 00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:26.240 their jobs it's a very serious situation 488 00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:28.799 the economic effect the economic impact 489 00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:31.440 of covet 19. this is going to be a very 490 00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:33.200 difficult fall because 491 00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:36.480 people you know the economic effects the 492 00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:38.559 uh tiredness the 493 00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:41.760 kids not being able to go to school 494 00:17:41.760 --> 00:17:43.520 let's keep going 495 00:17:43.520 --> 00:17:46.000 uh this continuation 496 00:17:46.000 --> 00:17:49.400 is a very difficult thing 497 00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:51.039 continuation 498 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:53.520 extension the fact that this is still 499 00:17:53.520 --> 00:17:55.600 happening you know a lot of people 500 00:17:55.600 --> 00:17:57.840 thought back in march when we first had 501 00:17:57.840 --> 00:17:59.440 our shutdown here in philadelphia that 502 00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:01.600 it was only going to be a few weeks 503 00:18:01.600 --> 00:18:03.520 so it's kind of mind-blowing that here 504 00:18:03.520 --> 00:18:06.400 in the fall we're still talking about it 505 00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:09.039 we have this continuation of the problem 506 00:18:09.039 --> 00:18:11.440 and it's starting to be harder for 507 00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:13.359 people to follow the rules 508 00:18:13.359 --> 00:18:15.840 uh this continuation 509 00:18:15.840 --> 00:18:18.960 is a very difficult thing 510 00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:21.359 let's keep going 511 00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:23.039 you've talked about the some of the 512 00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:24.960 sophisticated tools the therapeutics 513 00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:26.240 that 514 00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:28.400 that are coming and that some some are 515 00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:29.760 here 516 00:18:29.760 --> 00:18:32.480 sophisticated altered by education 517 00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:35.119 experience it might mean more complex 518 00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:37.280 its opposite would be basic something a 519 00:18:37.280 --> 00:18:39.440 little lower level versus higher level 520 00:18:39.440 --> 00:18:41.679 the higher level of sophistication and 521 00:18:41.679 --> 00:18:43.760 here he's talking about sophisticated 522 00:18:43.760 --> 00:18:46.000 therapeutics well a therapeutic is 523 00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:48.160 something that can help someone feel 524 00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:51.119 better get better recover from a disease 525 00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:53.119 let's listen again 526 00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:54.799 you've talked about the some of the 527 00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:56.720 sophisticated tools the therapeutics 528 00:18:56.720 --> 00:18:57.520 that 529 00:18:57.520 --> 00:18:59.919 uh that are coming and that some some 530 00:18:59.919 --> 00:19:01.760 are here 531 00:19:01.760 --> 00:19:03.280 let's keep going 532 00:19:03.280 --> 00:19:05.119 can you just talk a little bit i mean 533 00:19:05.119 --> 00:19:07.359 let's talk about uh regeneron you've 534 00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:10.400 been optimistic about uh about it 535 00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:12.799 regeneron is one of the companies who's 536 00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:14.799 making a drug that we hope will treat 537 00:19:14.799 --> 00:19:16.240 coronavirus 538 00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:18.559 and he also used the word optimistic 539 00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:21.119 this means takes a positive view of 540 00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:23.520 things feels good about how things could 541 00:19:23.520 --> 00:19:26.080 turn out the opposite is pessimistic 542 00:19:26.080 --> 00:19:28.080 where you take a negative view on things 543 00:19:28.080 --> 00:19:30.240 and you think things won't turn out 544 00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:32.080 let's watch this clip again 545 00:19:32.080 --> 00:19:34.000 can you just talk a little bit i mean 546 00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:36.320 let's talk about regeneron you've been 547 00:19:36.320 --> 00:19:38.000 optimistic about 548 00:19:38.000 --> 00:19:39.840 about it 549 00:19:39.840 --> 00:19:42.080 optimistic about it means he's hopeful 550 00:19:42.080 --> 00:19:44.160 he thinks that it really could work 551 00:19:44.160 --> 00:19:45.679 let's keep going 552 00:19:45.679 --> 00:19:47.440 it got obviously a big endorsement from 553 00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:49.119 president trump because he was able to 554 00:19:49.119 --> 00:19:51.840 to receive it he's calling it a cure 555 00:19:51.840 --> 00:19:54.160 endorsement this is like an approval or 556 00:19:54.160 --> 00:19:56.400 recommendation for something let's 557 00:19:56.400 --> 00:19:57.679 listen again 558 00:19:57.679 --> 00:19:59.440 it got obviously a big endorsement from 559 00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:01.200 president trump because he was able to 560 00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:04.480 to receive it he's calling it a cure 561 00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:07.280 he received it he felt the benefit he 562 00:20:07.280 --> 00:20:10.240 endorses it let's keep going 563 00:20:10.240 --> 00:20:11.760 uh he's calling on regulators to give an 564 00:20:11.760 --> 00:20:14.159 emergency use authorization 565 00:20:14.159 --> 00:20:15.919 regulators these are the people in 566 00:20:15.919 --> 00:20:18.080 charge of the regulations the rules 567 00:20:18.080 --> 00:20:20.640 around something how we'll do it in this 568 00:20:20.640 --> 00:20:22.799 case drugs how were they tested how are 569 00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:24.880 they rolled out to the public 570 00:20:24.880 --> 00:20:27.520 emergency use authorization so this 571 00:20:27.520 --> 00:20:28.880 would say 572 00:20:28.880 --> 00:20:30.960 okay this is an emergency case we're in 573 00:20:30.960 --> 00:20:33.520 a pandemic so even though we have these 574 00:20:33.520 --> 00:20:35.600 rules and these regulations about how we 575 00:20:35.600 --> 00:20:37.760 normally do things because we're in this 576 00:20:37.760 --> 00:20:39.520 emergency we're going to give 577 00:20:39.520 --> 00:20:41.520 authorization to do it differently this 578 00:20:41.520 --> 00:20:44.720 time probably more quickly emergency use 579 00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:46.880 authorization let's listen to this clip 580 00:20:46.880 --> 00:20:49.440 again he's calling on regulars to give 581 00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:52.960 an emergency use authorization 582 00:20:53.359 --> 00:20:55.359 let's keep going 583 00:20:55.359 --> 00:20:56.799 do you support the idea of the emergency 584 00:20:56.799 --> 00:20:58.880 use authorization and i assume 585 00:20:58.880 --> 00:21:01.280 it's not a cure 586 00:21:01.280 --> 00:21:03.600 to assume it means to think something is 587 00:21:03.600 --> 00:21:05.760 true based on what else you know without 588 00:21:05.760 --> 00:21:08.480 actually knowing for sure that it's true 589 00:21:08.480 --> 00:21:10.000 let's listen again 590 00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:11.520 do you support the idea of the emergency 591 00:21:11.520 --> 00:21:13.760 use authorization and i assume uh it's 592 00:21:13.760 --> 00:21:14.840 not a 593 00:21:14.840 --> 00:21:17.600 cure let's keep going 594 00:21:17.600 --> 00:21:20.480 let's hear the answer from mr gates 595 00:21:20.480 --> 00:21:23.600 no the well the word cure uh 596 00:21:23.600 --> 00:21:25.840 is a bit of an over promise you know 597 00:21:25.840 --> 00:21:27.679 that makes it sound it looks like works 598 00:21:27.679 --> 00:21:30.159 for everyone and the whole concern about 599 00:21:30.159 --> 00:21:31.760 this disease should go away and that's 600 00:21:31.760 --> 00:21:34.000 the last thing we want people think 601 00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:34.960 about 602 00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:37.119 the monoclonal antibodies which is what 603 00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:40.400 regeneron is that's always been the most 604 00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:43.119 promising therapeutic category the other 605 00:21:43.119 --> 00:21:45.280 therapeutic categories the antivirals 606 00:21:45.280 --> 00:21:47.200 like remdesphere has only had modest 607 00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:48.240 benefit 608 00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:50.559 there may be one more of those you know 609 00:21:50.559 --> 00:21:52.480 plasma or 610 00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:55.440 hyperimmune globulin is still unproven 611 00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:56.480 and 612 00:21:56.480 --> 00:21:58.320 that looks like it'll be a fairly slow 613 00:21:58.320 --> 00:22:01.840 track and so the the most exciting thing 614 00:22:01.840 --> 00:22:04.960 uh that for many months uh our 615 00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:07.280 foundation others have been uh working 616 00:22:07.280 --> 00:22:09.280 on and talking about are these 617 00:22:09.280 --> 00:22:13.000 monoclonal antibodies 618 00:22:14.080 --> 00:22:17.200 no the well the word cure uh 619 00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:19.440 is a bit of an over promise you know 620 00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:21.280 that makes it sound it looks like works 621 00:22:21.280 --> 00:22:23.760 for everyone and the whole concern about 622 00:22:23.760 --> 00:22:25.359 this disease should go away and that's 623 00:22:25.359 --> 00:22:27.600 the last thing we want people think 624 00:22:27.600 --> 00:22:28.880 about 625 00:22:28.880 --> 00:22:31.600 to over promise means to say you can do 626 00:22:31.600 --> 00:22:34.000 more than you actually can one thing you 627 00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:36.320 don't want to do is over promise and 628 00:22:36.320 --> 00:22:38.480 under deliver that means say you'll be 629 00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:40.000 able to do more but when it comes to 630 00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:42.240 actually doing it do less because that's 631 00:22:42.240 --> 00:22:44.159 going to leave people disappointed 632 00:22:44.159 --> 00:22:46.640 over promise 633 00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:49.760 no the well the word cure uh 634 00:22:49.760 --> 00:22:52.000 is a bit of an over promise you know 635 00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:53.840 that makes it sound it looks like works 636 00:22:53.840 --> 00:22:56.320 for everyone and the whole concern about 637 00:22:56.320 --> 00:22:57.919 this disease should go away and that's 638 00:22:57.919 --> 00:23:00.080 the last thing we want people think 639 00:23:00.080 --> 00:23:01.440 about 640 00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:03.760 so bill gates is optimistic he thinks 641 00:23:03.760 --> 00:23:05.600 that this could really be good for 642 00:23:05.600 --> 00:23:07.919 people but he says it's an over promise 643 00:23:07.919 --> 00:23:10.080 to call it a cure because it's probably 644 00:23:10.080 --> 00:23:12.480 not going to be all the way to curing 645 00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:14.720 everybody of this issue 646 00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:16.880 the monoclonal antibodies which is what 647 00:23:16.880 --> 00:23:18.640 regeneron is 648 00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:21.119 monoclonal antibodies now no i cannot 649 00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:23.520 claim to know what this means it's just 650 00:23:23.520 --> 00:23:25.760 part of the what's in the drug but let's 651 00:23:25.760 --> 00:23:27.919 listen to the pronunciation of it 652 00:23:27.919 --> 00:23:30.000 the monoclonal antibodies which is what 653 00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:32.400 regeneron is 654 00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:33.600 antibodies 655 00:23:33.600 --> 00:23:35.600 antibodies did you notice he didn't say 656 00:23:35.600 --> 00:23:37.480 the t 657 00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:40.080 anybody's it's pretty common to drop t 658 00:23:40.080 --> 00:23:41.919 after n and that's what he does here 659 00:23:41.919 --> 00:23:43.919 let's listen one more time 660 00:23:43.919 --> 00:23:46.080 the monoclonal antibodies which is what 661 00:23:46.080 --> 00:23:48.159 regeneron is 662 00:23:48.159 --> 00:23:51.279 and let's keep going that's always been 663 00:23:51.279 --> 00:23:54.400 the most promising therapeutic category 664 00:23:54.400 --> 00:23:57.119 if something is promising then we it 665 00:23:57.119 --> 00:23:59.840 really looks like it could be good we 666 00:23:59.840 --> 00:24:01.679 really hope that it's what will work in 667 00:24:01.679 --> 00:24:03.039 the long run or that it will be 668 00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:05.279 fantastic you could also use it for 669 00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:07.760 example with a young pianist learning to 670 00:24:07.760 --> 00:24:09.760 play the piano looks like he's going to 671 00:24:09.760 --> 00:24:12.480 be very very good you could say this kid 672 00:24:12.480 --> 00:24:14.320 has a lot of promise 673 00:24:14.320 --> 00:24:15.840 let's listen again 674 00:24:15.840 --> 00:24:18.320 that's always been the most promising 675 00:24:18.320 --> 00:24:20.640 therapeutic category 676 00:24:20.640 --> 00:24:23.600 it's a promising therapeutic category it 677 00:24:23.600 --> 00:24:25.520 shows a lot of hope he feels very 678 00:24:25.520 --> 00:24:27.600 positive about it that it could work out 679 00:24:27.600 --> 00:24:29.440 let's keep going 680 00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:31.119 the other therapeutic categories the 681 00:24:31.119 --> 00:24:33.520 antivirals like remdesphere has only had 682 00:24:33.520 --> 00:24:35.119 modest benefit 683 00:24:35.119 --> 00:24:37.760 modest benefit that means not a huge 684 00:24:37.760 --> 00:24:40.720 benefit not as big maybe as had been 685 00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:43.200 hoped you might hear modest also applied 686 00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:45.200 to something like a house he lives in a 687 00:24:45.200 --> 00:24:47.840 modest house that means it's small it's 688 00:24:47.840 --> 00:24:50.159 not very showy let's listen to this clip 689 00:24:50.159 --> 00:24:51.200 again 690 00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:52.799 the other therapeutic categories the 691 00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:55.200 antivirals like rendez-spheres only had 692 00:24:55.200 --> 00:24:57.359 modest benefit 693 00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:00.559 modest benefit not a large benefit let's 694 00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:01.919 keep going 695 00:25:01.919 --> 00:25:04.159 uh there may be one more of those you 696 00:25:04.159 --> 00:25:07.919 know plasma or um hyper immune globulin 697 00:25:07.919 --> 00:25:11.119 is still unproven and asthma the liquid 698 00:25:11.119 --> 00:25:13.440 part of the blood the other word we saw 699 00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:15.119 there i'm going to be honest with you 700 00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:16.559 it's very medical i don't know what it 701 00:25:16.559 --> 00:25:18.240 means but i wanted to put it up there in 702 00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:20.400 case you couldn't catch it now the last 703 00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:23.200 word we have is unproven now this means 704 00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:25.600 we don't have the results we don't know 705 00:25:25.600 --> 00:25:28.400 that it works let's listen again there 706 00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:31.520 may be one more of those you know plasma 707 00:25:31.520 --> 00:25:32.559 or 708 00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:35.440 hyper immune globulin is still unproven 709 00:25:35.440 --> 00:25:37.039 and 710 00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:39.200 still unproven we still haven't tested 711 00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:41.039 we still don't know that those therapies 712 00:25:41.039 --> 00:25:43.520 could work to help cure or alleviate the 713 00:25:43.520 --> 00:25:48.000 symptoms of covid19 let's keep going 714 00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:49.760 that looks like it'll be a fairly slow 715 00:25:49.760 --> 00:25:50.880 track 716 00:25:50.880 --> 00:25:53.840 slow track it will take time to test and 717 00:25:53.840 --> 00:25:54.880 prove 718 00:25:54.880 --> 00:25:56.720 that these therapeutics could 719 00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:59.200 potentially help so it's not something 720 00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:01.119 we're going to know soon or quickly 721 00:26:01.119 --> 00:26:02.960 let's listen again 722 00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:04.960 uh that looks like it'll be a fairly 723 00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:06.720 slow track 724 00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:08.320 let's keep going 725 00:26:08.320 --> 00:26:11.440 and so the the most exciting thing uh 726 00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:14.080 that for many months is again that 727 00:26:14.080 --> 00:26:16.320 pronunciation of months 728 00:26:16.320 --> 00:26:18.000 as months 729 00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:19.760 months let's listen 730 00:26:19.760 --> 00:26:22.960 and so the the most exciting thing uh 731 00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:26.080 that for many months 732 00:26:26.080 --> 00:26:28.960 many months let's keep going 733 00:26:28.960 --> 00:26:31.359 that for many months 734 00:26:31.359 --> 00:26:33.440 our foundation others have been 735 00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:35.919 working on and talking about are these 736 00:26:35.919 --> 00:26:38.159 monoclonal antibodies 737 00:26:38.159 --> 00:26:40.799 a foundation is an institution that's 738 00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:43.440 funded by donations in this case 739 00:26:43.440 --> 00:26:45.600 bill gates's money and also maybe other 740 00:26:45.600 --> 00:26:47.919 donors and the foundation works to give 741 00:26:47.919 --> 00:26:49.600 money to 742 00:26:49.600 --> 00:26:51.279 other organizations that help with 743 00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:54.320 education maybe environmental issues or 744 00:26:54.320 --> 00:26:56.480 health care or whatever this kind of 745 00:26:56.480 --> 00:26:58.640 thing and bill gates has the gates 746 00:26:58.640 --> 00:27:00.400 foundation that has done a lot of work 747 00:27:00.400 --> 00:27:02.880 in things like vaccines let's listen 748 00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:04.320 again 749 00:27:04.320 --> 00:27:06.400 our foundation others have been 750 00:27:06.400 --> 00:27:08.880 working on and talking about are these 751 00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:11.600 monoclonal antibodies 752 00:27:11.600 --> 00:27:13.359 let's keep going 753 00:27:13.359 --> 00:27:15.919 mr gates continues to explain the drug 754 00:27:15.919 --> 00:27:17.600 possibilities 755 00:27:17.600 --> 00:27:20.320 uh there are several companies uh eli 756 00:27:20.320 --> 00:27:22.559 lilly regeneron are going to be two of 757 00:27:22.559 --> 00:27:25.440 the first later astrazeneca veer 758 00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:28.240 and so the supply will go up the early 759 00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:32.159 data looks quite good uh you know we saw 760 00:27:32.159 --> 00:27:35.039 uh in the lily data that uh 761 00:27:35.039 --> 00:27:36.559 over 60 762 00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:38.960 of the people who got it early 763 00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:40.960 uh there was a 60 reduction in the 764 00:27:40.960 --> 00:27:42.398 number that that needed to be 765 00:27:42.398 --> 00:27:44.720 hospitalized now as we get to larger 766 00:27:44.720 --> 00:27:47.119 numbers our confidence in that uh will 767 00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:49.839 go up 768 00:27:50.640 --> 00:27:53.279 the supply the amount of the drug will 769 00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:55.840 go up as more people are making it the 770 00:27:55.840 --> 00:27:57.279 supply 771 00:27:57.279 --> 00:28:00.799 uh there are several companies eli lilly 772 00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:02.320 regeneron are going to be two of the 773 00:28:02.320 --> 00:28:05.119 first later astrazeneca veer 774 00:28:05.119 --> 00:28:07.919 and so the supply will go up 775 00:28:07.919 --> 00:28:10.159 let's keep going 776 00:28:10.159 --> 00:28:12.720 the early data looks quite good the 777 00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:15.359 early data the facts that we know from 778 00:28:15.359 --> 00:28:17.200 the research that has been done into 779 00:28:17.200 --> 00:28:19.600 these drugs data is actually one of the 780 00:28:19.600 --> 00:28:21.600 words that we learned recently in our 781 00:28:21.600 --> 00:28:23.520 academic word list 782 00:28:23.520 --> 00:28:25.840 vocabulary videos so check that out you 783 00:28:25.840 --> 00:28:27.760 can see the playlist here for all those 784 00:28:27.760 --> 00:28:30.880 academic word list vocabulary words 785 00:28:30.880 --> 00:28:33.520 now early data means in the early phase 786 00:28:33.520 --> 00:28:35.359 of testing they haven't done a ton of 787 00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:37.600 research but they have some data back 788 00:28:37.600 --> 00:28:39.360 that's their early data so they're 789 00:28:39.360 --> 00:28:41.360 making some conclusions based on what 790 00:28:41.360 --> 00:28:43.520 they know now even though the research 791 00:28:43.520 --> 00:28:46.240 isn't complete let's listen again 792 00:28:46.240 --> 00:28:49.760 the early data looks quite good 793 00:28:49.760 --> 00:28:51.760 and let's keep going 794 00:28:51.760 --> 00:28:54.559 uh in the lilly data that 795 00:28:54.559 --> 00:28:57.440 over 60 percent of the people who got it 796 00:28:57.440 --> 00:28:58.799 early 797 00:28:58.799 --> 00:29:00.799 there was a 60 reduction in the number 798 00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:03.279 that that needed to be hospitalized now 799 00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:04.960 as we get to larger numbers our 800 00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:06.480 confidence in that 801 00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:07.840 will go up 802 00:29:07.840 --> 00:29:09.440 confidence in 803 00:29:09.440 --> 00:29:11.840 trust in something belief that it will 804 00:29:11.840 --> 00:29:14.559 work so before he said something they 805 00:29:14.559 --> 00:29:17.600 had some early data that had promised so 806 00:29:17.600 --> 00:29:19.520 a little bit of research had been done 807 00:29:19.520 --> 00:29:21.679 the results looked good now he's saying 808 00:29:21.679 --> 00:29:24.000 as they do even more research they'll 809 00:29:24.000 --> 00:29:26.080 have even more confidence this is going 810 00:29:26.080 --> 00:29:28.799 to be something that can help people 811 00:29:28.799 --> 00:29:30.960 now for the whole interview you can see 812 00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:32.880 the link in the video description it was 813 00:29:32.880 --> 00:29:35.200 quite long and so i only took a little 814 00:29:35.200 --> 00:29:37.520 bit of it to learn with here 815 00:29:37.520 --> 00:29:39.679 what do you think will we see a vaccine 816 00:29:39.679 --> 00:29:41.360 for the coronavirus in the next few 817 00:29:41.360 --> 00:29:44.159 months let me know in the comments below 818 00:29:44.159 --> 00:29:45.760 now we'll look at all the clips of the 819 00:29:45.760 --> 00:29:47.200 interview that we've studied still with 820 00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:49.520 that on-screen text to reinforce what 821 00:29:49.520 --> 00:29:50.640 you've learned 822 00:29:50.640 --> 00:29:52.159 the coronavirus death toll united states 823 00:29:52.159 --> 00:29:54.559 is now more than 212 000 people in this 824 00:29:54.559 --> 00:29:56.480 country total number of cases more than 825 00:29:56.480 --> 00:29:58.240 seven and a half million staggering 826 00:29:58.240 --> 00:30:00.159 numbers of course there's precious 827 00:30:00.159 --> 00:30:02.000 little sign of things slowing down add 828 00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:03.600 to that president trump's diagnosis the 829 00:30:03.600 --> 00:30:05.039 high infection numbers the white house 830 00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:07.760 the overall lag in widespread testing 831 00:30:07.760 --> 00:30:09.520 contact tracing it's certainly a recipe 832 00:30:09.520 --> 00:30:11.039 for concern as the fall begins in the 833 00:30:11.039 --> 00:30:12.960 winter bill gates is joining us he's 834 00:30:12.960 --> 00:30:14.240 co-chair of the bill and melinda gates 835 00:30:14.240 --> 00:30:16.880 foundation has long put his fortune and 836 00:30:16.880 --> 00:30:18.640 talent behind searching for cures for 837 00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:20.799 this global health crisis and for other 838 00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:22.559 global health crisis 839 00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:24.000 he joins me now bill thanks for being 840 00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:25.039 with us 841 00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:27.279 looking at where the u.s is right now in 842 00:30:27.279 --> 00:30:29.120 this pandemic and during the fall in the 843 00:30:29.120 --> 00:30:31.039 winter cases on the rise not just in 844 00:30:31.039 --> 00:30:32.640 small clusters but 845 00:30:32.640 --> 00:30:35.200 across most of the nation how concerned 846 00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:38.159 are you about the months ahead 847 00:30:38.159 --> 00:30:40.640 well i'm very concerned uh the forecast 848 00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:42.960 showed that the deaths are going to go 849 00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:45.679 back up almost to the level they were 850 00:30:45.679 --> 00:30:47.919 in the spring and 851 00:30:47.919 --> 00:30:49.360 you know it's people are going to be 852 00:30:49.360 --> 00:30:52.960 indoors more uh the compliance with the 853 00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:55.919 distancing and the mass use is 854 00:30:55.919 --> 00:30:58.080 going down in many areas that never got 855 00:30:58.080 --> 00:31:00.480 super good in some areas 856 00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:03.679 and so except for the innovative tools 857 00:31:03.679 --> 00:31:05.760 that i'm sure we'll talk about this is 858 00:31:05.760 --> 00:31:07.440 going to be a very difficult fall 859 00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:08.399 because 860 00:31:08.399 --> 00:31:11.600 people you know the economic effects the 861 00:31:11.600 --> 00:31:13.760 uh tiredness the 862 00:31:13.760 --> 00:31:16.559 kids not being able to go to school 863 00:31:16.559 --> 00:31:18.559 this continuation 864 00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:21.519 is a very difficult thing 865 00:31:21.519 --> 00:31:23.200 you've talked about the some of the 866 00:31:23.200 --> 00:31:25.120 sophisticated tools the therapeutics 867 00:31:25.120 --> 00:31:28.000 that uh that are coming and that some 868 00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:30.000 some are here can you just talk a little 869 00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:30.960 bit i mean 870 00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:33.200 let's talk about uh regeneron you've 871 00:31:33.200 --> 00:31:34.960 been optimistic about 872 00:31:34.960 --> 00:31:36.960 about it it got obviously a big 873 00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:38.399 endorsement from president trump because 874 00:31:38.399 --> 00:31:40.480 he was able to to receive it he's 875 00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:41.919 calling it a cure 876 00:31:41.919 --> 00:31:43.440 uh he's calling on regulators to give an 877 00:31:43.440 --> 00:31:45.519 emergency use authorization 878 00:31:45.519 --> 00:31:47.039 do you support the idea of the emergency 879 00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:49.279 use authorization and i assume uh it's 880 00:31:49.279 --> 00:31:51.279 not a cure 881 00:31:51.279 --> 00:31:54.399 no the well the word cure uh 882 00:31:54.399 --> 00:31:56.640 is a bit of an over promise you know 883 00:31:56.640 --> 00:31:58.480 that makes it sound it looks like works 884 00:31:58.480 --> 00:32:00.960 for everyone and the whole concern about 885 00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:02.559 this disease should go away and that's 886 00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:04.720 the last thing we want people think 887 00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:05.760 about 888 00:32:05.760 --> 00:32:07.919 the monoclonal antibodies which is what 889 00:32:07.919 --> 00:32:11.200 regeneron is that's always been the most 890 00:32:11.200 --> 00:32:13.919 promising therapeutic category the other 891 00:32:13.919 --> 00:32:16.080 therapeutic categories the antivirals 892 00:32:16.080 --> 00:32:18.000 like remdesphere has only had modest 893 00:32:18.000 --> 00:32:19.039 benefit 894 00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:21.360 there may be one more of those you know 895 00:32:21.360 --> 00:32:23.279 plasma or 896 00:32:23.279 --> 00:32:26.240 hyperimmune globulin is still unproven 897 00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:27.279 and 898 00:32:27.279 --> 00:32:29.120 that looks like it'll be a fairly slow 899 00:32:29.120 --> 00:32:32.640 track and so the the most exciting thing 900 00:32:32.640 --> 00:32:35.760 uh that for many months uh our 901 00:32:35.760 --> 00:32:38.080 foundation others have been uh working 902 00:32:38.080 --> 00:32:40.080 on and talking about are these 903 00:32:40.080 --> 00:32:42.799 monoclonal antibodies uh there are 904 00:32:42.799 --> 00:32:46.240 several companies uh eli lilly regeneron 905 00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:48.000 are going to be two of the first later 906 00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:49.840 astrazeneca veer 907 00:32:49.840 --> 00:32:52.559 and so the supply will go up the early 908 00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:56.559 data looks quite good uh you know we saw 909 00:32:56.559 --> 00:32:59.440 uh in the lily data that uh 910 00:32:59.440 --> 00:33:02.320 over 60 percent of the people who got it 911 00:33:02.320 --> 00:33:03.360 early 912 00:33:03.360 --> 00:33:05.360 uh there was a 60 reduction in the 913 00:33:05.360 --> 00:33:06.799 number that that needed to be 914 00:33:06.799 --> 00:33:09.120 hospitalized now as we get to larger 915 00:33:09.120 --> 00:33:11.360 numbers our confidence in that 916 00:33:11.360 --> 00:33:12.559 will go up 917 00:33:12.559 --> 00:33:14.480 there was a lot to learn there and mr 918 00:33:14.480 --> 00:33:16.960 anderson really
