https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/29/business/elon-musk-nyt-podcast-covid-vaccine/index.html
Elon Musk is once again publicly downplaying the risks of Covid-19. In a wide-ranging interview with the journalist Kara Swisher, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO said he would not take a Covid-19 vaccine when one becomes available, and declined to say whether he feels a duty to pay employees who want to stay home to avoid contracting the virus. "I'm not at risk for Covid, nor are my kids," said Musk during Monday's episode of the New York Times podcast "Sway." Musk has long cultivated a public persona of an eccentric entrepreneur who knows better than the experts and isn't afraid to offer controversial opinions. On the podcast, Musk argued that instead of sweeping stay-at-home orders to mitigate the spread of coronavirus, "anyone who is at risk should be quarantined until the storm passes." When Swisher confronted Musk with the possibility that people would still die in the process, he replied bluntly: "Everybody dies." "The question is what, on balance, serves the greater good," Musk continued, adding that the lockdowns did not accomplish that and the pandemic is a "no-win situation." Musk, the third-richest person in the world according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, tweeted in April that nationwide stay-at-home orders amounted to "de facto house arrest." If one of his workers told him that coming to work would put their family at risk, Musk said he would simply tell them to "stay home." He declined to elaborate on whether he would feel obliged to pay them. --- Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Musk, the third-richest person in the world according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, tweeted in April that nationwide stay-at-home orders amounted to "de facto house arrest. Whether or not you agree with this has nothing to do with him being observant to the current situation. I think this is a very blatant poke at the fact that closing borders and businesses did more harm then good to the economy of America had we just went on as business as usual in March/April. Yeah, people would have died, but the economy wouldn't have tanked so hard. It's a tough stance to take and it won't be popular. His understanding isn't a horrible one if you can suspend morals for a moment and see what "the greater good" is. If people can do it for Thanos, then certainly they can do it for Musk. Also: I'm not agreeing with his statement either, I'm merely conceding that his statement is an observation and not a popular one. --- Y helo thar buttsecks ... Copied to Clipboard!

Sir Will posted... Once again... what? I'm sorry the world is a hard, cruel, place and is no place for people sensitive to the likes of lives being lost by the hundreds of thousands or millions. Sometimes people are sacrificed so that others may live (and prosper, apparently) You might not like it, but this is very much a part of our world today. You can either accept it or fight it, but know that if you fight it that your voice is hushed and nobody can hear you unless you enjoy the sound of your own sermons. --- Y helo thar buttsecks ...

@Joeydollaz
IF you never got tested for Covid, why would you get this first?, this is a Vaccine....not "a test" for covid A vaccine helps prevent a healthy body from getting the disease in the first place. Which means not only does one less person get the disease, but one less person can potentially spread the disease. the majority of people who get the flu vaccine, for instance, dont have the flu --- #1 Kaiju Fangirl ^_^ https://imgur.com/mptS9Qj ...
