That's actually pretty cool.
He's right, not only poor people should be infected.

Bravo, Mr. Jobs,
on an excellent show.
:]

Great idea, but I'm surprised the DHS didn't detain him for terrorism.

'Malaria is spread by mosquitoes,' Gates said while opening a jar on stage at a gathering known to attract technology kings, politicians, and Hollywood stars. 'I brought some. Here I'll let them roam around. There is no reason only poor people should be infected.'"

if were talking about jobs then why does it say gates.

I am with Martin, it says Gates. But yeah, this is a perfect example. Go Mr. Jobs.

definately not too much, that was a great way to prove a point and push for action

i would freak out!

didnt it say steve jobs 10 seconds ago? hahaha.

Yes it did!!! We messed up. It's fixed now thanks for setting our record straight. Is it Friday yet?

Good idea

Gotta love Mr. Gates.

smart guy.

Indeed, good show my good man ^_^

Wow!! Ha, that's amazing. He has guts, I'll give him that. Oh hell, He's my hero. xD (not really...) That was a great way to prove his point though, by making sure people knew what he was saying. He didn't just give a speech, he made sure they would remember it and think about it.

the best way to get the point across!

Way to get the point across

Smart idea.
I'm just shocked he didn't get in A LOT of trouble

Go Bill !!!!!!!!

I have a new respect for him actually, you know he had a point about not only poor people should be infected, it goes to show he has a lot of character. Excellent Mr. Moneybucks your an allstar!

Ughh I hate mosquitoes. They are and will always be my phobia. I can't even stand to be in a room with let alone one. I hear a buzzing noise and I get panic attacks.. I'd say he made a very point, yes. Although I if I were in that room, I'd be the maniac to go running and screaming out of the room as fast as I could. haha.

wow thats actually a great way to get your point across. not out of line at all.

nicky:
what he did is hella smart.
seriously, a lot of people in power are just finding ANYY solution. in my opinion it would take for them to spend time in the life of a person truley battling those mosquitos. So Bill Gates pretty much gave them shit for a whole speech. I LOVE IT! (:

thats a good way to get ppl to do something about it! lol thats cool

I think it was a bloody brilliant idea.

excellent idea.
but i can help but feel a little irked about what probably happened to most of those mosquitoes.

I don't care for his computers but his outlook on morality and ethics is astonishingly well developed

i think thats not right. i understand trying to prove a point but that's just a little scary

Bout time....for truth!

Well, I do think it was a little over the top, but if nothing else is going to catch the people's attention, why not? I mean, whatever's clever! haha I think it was very brave of him. Good job, Bill!

That was a good idea. I wish I was there to see it.

Amazing, i love it, he is so right.
poor people get treated like animals.

THATS THE BEST iDEA EVER...WHAT A WAY TO GET ATTENTiON.

people seem to only react when there is fear involved. i think bill gates did the right thing. as it is a little strange, it drove the point straight home and it's something that needed to be understood

Go Mr. Gatess !
lolz
i really like the way your creativity (:

yea bill show em

I actually think that is amazing the point he was trying to make. Just because we do not live something ourselves does not mean it does not happen other places.
AWARENESS is necessary!

kudos to BILL

That's awesome.
Enough said.
;D

woo. Go Bill Gates. Lol. I mean, it may have been a really stupid idea, but, it proved a point.

I think he set a good exaple by doin that...Good job mr.Genuis :]

I think that's awesome. There were probably more tactful ways to prove his point, but would any have been as effective? I doubt it, lol.

good job

hahahahha that's awesome

wtf??? if he weren't the nation's richest man he'd be charged with terrorism and detained by the department of homeland security!

Hes great

good.

I think it was definitely not too much, it was just perfect.....
way to go Mr.Jobs :]

Way to go Bill Gates, way to wake them up!

LilJohnAY ....its Bill Gates .....not steve jobs

Holy crap! Bill Gates is a badass!

oh i see...SV messed up!...haha........

Mad respect for Bill Gates!

Dang. I have goose bumps from this! Mosquitos are the WORST. They love me. 8| He definitely got the point across.

WOW, GO BILLL GATES !!!
dont stop now keep going !

I read this earlier and it said steve jobs....now it's bill gates?!?

that's really awesome.

Kudos to him
That was a very good analogy

Props to Mr. Jobs. He always know how to make an impression.
:]

brilliant!

haha nice. good way to prove a point. awesome

I think that It may actually be possible for HIV to be spread by mosquitos. Although not probable, I dont see any scientific reason why it would be impossible...

Wow.

I think that was great what he did!! It proves a point and makes people realize that we need to help.

wait , wha?
i saw thing is the morning and it was it was steve jobs lol
....
i guess XD

i think he did exactly what needed to be done

that's amazing.

I think that's an amazing way to make a statement and get people to pay attention.
props to him. bravo.

=D

He definitely got his point across.

Kudos to him for bringing everyone's attention to this.

that's totally genius.
go gates!

why does the link say steve jobs but the article says bill gates? D:

he's my new hero ;D

That's amazing. He's definitely using his brains for a good cause.

That is a great idea to show the rich a point about what is happening in the world

that was actually a good idea, and good on him for trying to help and getting his point across

i totally would have slapped him.lol.

GO BILL!
FTW!!

XD

go BILL!!!

Bill Gates is looked at as a bad guy in a lot of ways. but to me hes more human and real then anyone else out there. Beast lol

Lol. I support Mr. Gates. XD

that was a really good idea. it makes a lot of sense. <3

Very great

great idea. I think he's absolutely right.

now, THAT is a great kind of statement!

pretty sure it scared them into action. it's a really good push for them.

a bit on the extreme side but if the mosquitoes weren't infected by malaria, than it is actually pretty cool and he got his point across and also got a lot of press attention which will bting this case to light even more

Ok like I know Bill Gates Has his own cause. Why is he not using this site yet to help raise even more money

Well they do say actions speak louder than words....

that is awesomeee. haha he definitely knows how to make a statement P

Sean John is also helping the fight against malaria - for every t-shirt purchased, $20 will go towards providing mosquito nets for African families! http://www.seanjohn.com/malarianomore

he's a beast. I admore him haha. rich and still cares, what a generous man.

My name is Craciun Florin , I'm from Romania and I watched on TV Discavery, two reports made in Africa and India to fight against the mosquito population and we were impressed by the victims in India, God forgive them, Considering that the situation will be repeated and measures that we have seen that are proposed to be taken,poliestern expanded in the toilets and beds and mosquito nets sprayed with chemicals, or not to save people, they'll have little impact and will not protect the poor and uninformed, we propose to apply the method that I apply when fishing in the Danube Delta, a damp place where they are at least as many mosquitoes for 2-3 days wash 2-3 times a day with a piece of raw salt from the salt mine, I wash with it, like a soap, let it dry salt on the skin, then rinse and leave it in a few mins will feel a little oily,do not use perfume , deodorants or soap for 2-3 weeks to wash the skin where it emanate a smell of salt, a little harsh but not like the mosquitoes will not bite the skin and .1 ton of salt, in this raw, and cost $ 100 can save the lives of tens of thousands of people I hope you apply and be well. So God help us,Florin
