WSJ NEWS ALERT: Gates Foundation Commits $10 Billion to Vaccines - dusher@gmail.com - Gmail

Thanks, Bill and Melinda, for your tremendous generosity. You are a model for all philanthropists!


"Philanthropists Bill Gates and Melinda Gates said they will spend $10 billion to develop and deliver new vaccines over the next decade, highlighting growing concerns that the global recession and competing government priorities will stifle efforts to control diseases in developing countries.

The money, announced at the World Economic Forum in Davos Switzerland, marks an increase from the roughly $800 million a year the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation now spends on vaccine work."
