Elon Musk Provides Only Sane and Calm View on Coronavirus - Says You're More Likely To Die in Car Crash

Musk is right.

Depending where you live, it's more likely that you die from a Tesla car explosion.

Elon Musk is a genius. He is also possibly certifiably insane, like many geniuses. In this case he is completely wrong, as history will show us very soon (next few weeks to months).

Is he not diagnosed bipolar?

Wonder what depressed Musk will say when many are ill?

Oh, please. The vast majority of people didn't even show any symptoms when they got infected with coronavirus. But go ahead, you can use your typical alarmist phrases like "battling cancer" or "you are an inspiration"!

About 3300 people die of car crashes every single day. 5600 deaths total from Covid-19.

0.0005% of the Chinese population got infected with Covid-19.

Most cases of it are mild.

Everyone needs to just relax.

Meh. This is a once in a decade opportunity to buy stocks cheap. Keep freaking out people. Please as much as you can.

Here is Elon Musk telling people they are way over reacting to the coronavirus and are far more likely to die in a car crash and yet you have the stupid coronavirus alarmist media slamming him.

He's likely wrong. If left unchecked, this thing would easily kill 40,000 americans. That's just math.

I'd give up a million americans to get Boston back.

Not sure why you are assigning "your typical" anything to me, you don't know me.

I realize that many people believe this is just more fake news, you among them. That's fine, we all get to choose to believe what we like, and nothing I say will affect your point of view. I will make a prediction though: someone in your circle of family, friends of colleagues will die from this infection, and that death will have been preventable, if viewed in the cold hard light of day.

I wish all the best to you and yours, regardless of our differences of opinion on this. That said, your stubbornness, along with that of your like-minded peeps, will lead to unneeded fatalities. Everyone will die, so perhaps perishing sooner isn't such a big deal in an abstract, academic sense. Until it becomes personal, which may not happen to you but likely will.

Oh please, people die everyday from more mundane things including other flu diseases and from being fat. Death is just another part of life.

The predictions go from 200,000 to 1.7 million dead just for the US.

Can't find the exact article for this but here is another one:

That's a big pile of horse manure. Why don't you just pull numbers out of thin air? Those stats are so distorted and don't even factor that the vast majority of people don't show any symptoms and are not even tested for it.

His word means nothing.

Tesla is way down. I’m sure he hopes it won’t go bankrupt while millions have to stay home & can’t drive.

He has been under assault by the media ever since he stated "who do you think owns the media".

I'm a huge fan of Elon Musk and everything he's done. He's a very uniquely talented person, and he's definitely a genius. But yes, as many people have observed, genius and insanity seem to overlap. This has got to be the dumbest thing Elon's ever said.

Death is not the only bad outcome of covid-19. Let's assume the death rate was 0% as long as everyone gets appropriate medical treatment. If everything else remained the same, we would still have people dying because when too many people get sick all at the same time, the hospitals can't treat them all.

I'm trying to avoid coronavirus, not because I'm worried about dying from it. I'm trying to avoid coronavirus because I don't want to spread it to other people who are at higher risk, and also I would prefer not to spend a couple weeks being miserably sick if I can avoid it.

Elon Musk is only concerned about his profits.

We saw from his libel of the British diver in Thailand what kind of view he holds of older people.

I'm not worried about myself catching coronavirus, but I'm worried about my elderly mother.

Elon Musk might be a genius, but he's a pretty sh***y human being.

You really think the Chinese locked down everything for fun? These numbers are so low because of extreme containment measures.

If you think everything is a conspiracy, find a real person to talk to in Italy. They will confirm what you think is fake news.

I don’t mean to dismiss your fears, but if you are under 30 your have practically no chance of getting seriously ill, likely no symptoms at all. Right now only 10 people are in critical condition in the whole country. Still, It’s great we are all acting appropriately for the sake of the whole.
