Bill Gates Brings Back ‘Mosquito Week’ On His ‘Gates Notes’

Gates Notes: This animal kills more people in a day than sharks do in a century
Bill Gates, co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, writes, “I’m determined to spread the word about mosquitoes — which is why I’m bringing back Mosquito Week here on Gates Notes. Everything I’m posting this week is dedicated to my least favorite pest. You can read some good news about a country that hopes to eliminate malaria by 2020. You can see how the bed nets the Mozambique Ministry of Health and World Vision distributed last year on behalf of the Gates Notes Insider community are making a difference. I’m going to be talking about mosquitoes on my social channels all week, and I hope you’ll join the conversation…” (4/23).
