Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla tweeted that he may have COVID, according to Bloomberg.
The 49 year old tech entrepreneur said that so far his symptoms resemble those of a cold. He took four rapid antigen tests, which are cheaper and faster but two of them came back as negative and two came back as positive. He commented that these results were “extremely bogus”.
No stranger to courting controversy, Musk has in the past cast doubts about COVID, even claiming in March that there would be “zero” cases in the United States by April (which currently has recorded 153 496 new daily cases as of writing this article). He then appeared to cast further doubts, saying that the number of cases would “explode” due to the number of false positives.
