Do you think it's OK for Bill Gates to gamble again and predict eight breakthroughs in 15 years?

Bill Gates made another bet in 2015. On January 22, Bill Gates and his wife Melinda Gate issued an open letter for 2015 years. In his open letter, Gates predicted the world for the next 15 years. Mr. and Mrs. Gates said that 15 years later, the number of children killed in half, Africa will achieve food self-sufficiency, mobile banking services will help the poor to radically change their lives, better software will trigger a learning revolution.

Bill Gates predicts that in the next 15 years there will be 8 major events in 8 areas of health, agriculture, banking, and education:

The death toll for children under 1 or 5 years of age is reduced by half.

In 1990, the global mortality rate for children under five years of age was 10%. Today, the ratio is 5%. By 2030, that figure would have dropped to 2.5%. By then, immunization programmes in almost all countries will include diarrhoeal and pneumonia vaccines, which are the leading causes of child mortality. Simple methods (such as hand washing) and innovation (such as new toilets designed specifically for poor areas) can improve sanitary conditions and significantly reduce disease transmission. And we are also learning how to help more mothers to use the right breastfeeding, maternal and child skin contact methods to prevent newborn infants in the one months after birth premature death. (The death toll of newborn deaths is slower than that of older children, which now accounts for almost half of the total number of child deaths.) In the past 25 years, a strong health system has been established in many poor countries, and in the next 15 years, other countries will learn the concepts of these countries and give more and better quality care to newborns and young children. As a result, millions of of people will eventually escape the doom of death and gain opportunities for survival and development.

Second, the number of maternal deaths decreased by two-thirds.

More and more mothers around the world are choosing to give birth in health facilities rather than at home. For example, since 2005, the proportion of maternal hospital deliveries in Rwanda has risen from 31% to 72% per cent, and in Cambodia this has risen from 20% to 57%. As long as we continue to ensure that the health care personnel of these institutions are adequately and adequately trained, we can take advantage of this global trend and help women around the world to give birth more safely. In addition, maternal mortality would decline as more women were given access to contraceptives and information about the safety arrangements for the spacing of births. The more women there are, the fewer mothers will die.

Third, polio (commonly known as polio) and other diseases were eliminated.

It is very difficult to completely eradicate a disease-in fact, the eradication of smallpox in the 1980 was the only time in human history to completely eradicate a disease. But as long as we continue to work hard, we can eliminate four diseases 2030 years ago. This year we can drive polio out of Africa, and in the next few years we can make the disease disappear globally. Guinea worm is a disease that can cause severe pain, and in the months of a patient's incapacity, a parasite of up to a few feet can drill out of the patient's leg. Thankfully, the disappearance of the disease is also imminent, thanks largely to the efforts of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and Carter Center. We will also eliminate diseases like skin disease, river blindness and blinding trachoma, which cause tens of millions of of people in poor countries to become disabled. Pharmaceutical companies are donating a lot of drugs to curb these diseases. In addition, due to the development of digital maps in recent years, we can identify the most serious areas of the epidemic, so that more targeted use of drugs. Last year 800 million people received these free drugs.
