After this COVID pandemic, will the U.S now implement a national program like
that suggested by Bill Gates in his 2015 Ted Talk?

"We need a response system with an ability to mobilize hundreds of thousands of health workers."

Bill Gates: The next outbreak? We're not ready

In 2014, the world avoided a global outbreak of Ebola, thanks to thousands of selfless health workers -- plus, frankly, some very good luck. In hindsight, we know what we should have done better. So, now's the time, Bill Gates suggests, to put all our good ideas into practice, from scenario planning to vaccine research to health worker training. As he says, "There's no need to panic ... but we need to get going."

“The problem wasn’t that there was a system that didn’t work well enough. The problem was that we didn’t have a system at all"

'We’re not ready for the next epidemic,' Bill Gates warned – five years ago

We need a response system with an ability to mobilize hundreds of thousands of health workers, Gates said during the Ebola epidemic in West Africa.
