You beat me to the exact word I was going to use. Bravo.

One of the amazing advances of the modern world is eradicating smallpox and the like through vaccinations. It would be tremendous if the benefits of vaccination were extended to everyone on earth.

Let's not derail this thread please. Make a separate thread to bash the Nobel Peace prize and their great decisions.

It gives me goosebumps how great an effect this will have. It would have been pretty humorous if it was an anonymous gift of $10bil just because of how few people can actually donate that much.

This is going to sound absolutely horrible, but I don't think this is a worthy cause at all. The overpopulation that is already rampant in many areas which have such poor medical conditions will make starvation even more of an issue once less children are dying due to disease. This isn't solving a problem so much as changing it. Overall suffering may even be increased.

No, I didn't. What I'm wondering is, how do YOU know this to be true?

This is an amazing thing.

Seriously, anyone who criticizes this in any way, shape, or form, is absolutely disgusting.

They're donating TEN BILLION DOLLARS to help the world become a better place, what the hell have you done to change the world lately?

bill gates has given away soooooo much money its crazy. I think a while back he pleged to give like half his money away before he died . If more nerds were rich the world would be a better place lol.
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.

Stop derailing the thread. That has been disproven. Link:Polio Vaccine AIDS hypothesis

I cannot believe the people who are against vaccines. Seriously? And with medical healthcare/sterilization/procedures improving it's even less of an issue. There are some side effects, but it has saved far more lives and increased life expectancy greatly.

Gates and Buffet have put so much of their own money into charities (particularly the Gates foundation), truly is an awesome thing to see.

If i had as much money as him I would donate that shit to important things like this. Anyone with over 40 billion needs to be like Gates.

Edit: Bill Gate's net worth is around 25 billion, the fact that he even considers donating close to 40% of his ENTIRE net worth is INSANE. Very Nice

And you got wrecked by someone proving that YOU are full of crap. So funny, you got destroyed hahhahaahhahahh.

This was REALLY awesome of bill gates, I do wish he sent it for cancer, but saving lives is saving lives and its his money.
