Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has invested billions of dollars into the construction of factories working to develop a COVID-19 vaccine.
He revealed the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will select and fund seven vaccine candidates but warned it could take 18 months to develop a safe and effective vaccine.
Mr Gates stepped down from the Microsoft board in March to focus on health-related work including the identification and development of coronavirus treatments.
