I found the full video (hour-long interview with Fareed Zakaria)


The context is he was talking about early February 2020 when we knew almost nothing about the virus, including how much it disproportionately affected the elderly.

He also followed up this comment noting the fatality rates of smallpox and bubonic plague (30-40%), compared to which COVID-19's fatality rate is of course much lower.

I can guarantee you that Bill Gates would not argue or suggest COVID-19 was a nothing-burger we should have just done nothing about because it only kills a few old people and otherwise doesn't hurt anyone.
