There will definitely be a second wave of the new type of coronavirus.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates in a statement to the Arab press.

He said it was unclear what the consequences of the second wave would be:

"Unfortunately, the pandemic is spreading rapidly in South and Central America. Although we have seen a decline in both infections and deaths in the United States and Europe, unfortunately, this is not the case around the world."

Gates once again reminded that a pandemic vaccine could be developed by the end of 2021.
