Elon Musk’s comment on the COVID-19 vaccine

Atweet by Elon Musk about the COVID-19 vaccine has gone viral, after he posted about “disinformation.”

The Tesla CEO took to X, formerly Twitter, which he also owns, to share a montage of news headlines that said the various vaccines for the virus were “100% effective.”

“Have you heard dis information?” Musk captioned the tweet on Tuesday.

But political journalist Ed Krassenstein questioned the billionaire.

“I think efficacy changes are a result of new strains and the vaccine immunity wearing off. It’s stupid anyone ever claimed it was 100% effective. No vaccine is 100% full-proof,” Krassenstein replied.

“Until the Supreme Court invalidated Biden’s exec order, SpaceX and many other companies would have been forced to fire anyone who refused to get vaccinated! We would not have done so. I would rather go to prison than fire good people who didn’t want to be jabbed.”

Bronny James, 18, also a basketball player was rushed to hospital, which his family said in a statement was the result of a “functionally significant congenital heart defect.”

“We cannot ascribe everything to the vaccine, but, by the same token, we cannot ascribe nothing,” Musk tweeted. “Myocarditis is a known side-effect. The only question is whether it is rare or common.”

Dr. Matthew Martinez, director of sports cardiology at the Atlantic Health System in New Jersey, told CNN in response to Musk’s tweet: “Myocarditis is definitely a cause of sudden death in young athletes, but not a common threat.”
