Exactly. It says March 2020. Much like COVID-19, you can’t cure stupid.
Some one have the vaccine mate. Just w8ing to more sprade for selling that with more price.
Hopefully this virus can help our society and people reevaluate themselves, since they ARE AT HOME now.
@gdpm yup
I agree, we need to redesign society, but it’s not profitable so our greed might do us in.
I just hope it makes people realize they need to work harder and stop being lazy
Novabow John Mivule hahaha? At home? No mate were forced to go to school
Same way the horrors of war have made people stop fighting lol
These people are actually gathered in a huge audience to listen to a talk about COVID-19 during a COVID-19 outbreak?

Talking about preventing the virus while being a room full of people.
Exactly what I came here to say. I haven’t finished watching yet, but I hope that was an applaud track.
@Hilu8D No she mentions COVID-19 by name, she said this is the 7th corona virus, around 2:23
@nox no otherwise she wouldn’t have said ‘everyone wash your hands while you’re leaving the theatre’
Hahahahaha
Is this the same video being posted again. I just watched something similar to this with her a week ago.
Yes. It’s the same video.
Different channels, TED vs TEDx, they probably want to get it out there as much as possible.
Thank you
@Mike B It says March 2020 at the start

“These are the kind of inequities that kill people.”
On point talk.

Don’t forget the upcoming toilet roll wars;
“he who controls the toilet paper, controls the world”…..
It is bad in Germany… Not sure if I should cry or laugh…
The toilet paper must flow
Or the random chimp event
@Rare metalmorph thanks
Toilet Paper War? This is only for people who don’t have a bidet in their bathrooms.
This is basically the same video as “Coronavirus is our Future”.
I liked the old title better
What a shame.
Yup it is. Jeez go fig
its basically propaganda bs. the virus is SARS- COV-2 COVID 19 refers to the year it was found out about

VittoGoL I know, didn’t feel like correcting it :P. But my comment wasn’t meant to be insulting, so… I’ll edit a smile next to it.

Covid-19 …it does sound like a vacuum cleaner you’d buy off those teleshopping channel’s…introducing the all new covid19,with inbuilt bluetooth speaker
I haven’t watched this yet but my first thought was. We should be avoiding large gatherings.
And Bill Gates ALMOST 6 YEARS AGO on TED said we needed to prepare for the next outbreak.
