The shocking revelation will surprise more than one Elon Musk fan.
The billionaire is known to oppose the restrictions put in place to limit the spread of covid-19.
He did not hesitate in the midst of a pandemic to challenge the lockdowns. Musk launched a scathing criticism of anti-Covid-19 measures on April 30, 2020, during Tesla’s first-quarter earnings call.
“I have to say that we are a bit concerned that we won’t be able to resume production in the Bay Area, and that should be identified as a serious risk,” Musk began.
“We only have two car factories right now, one in Shanghai and one in the Bay Area, and the Bay Area makes the vast majority of our cars, all of the S and X, and most of the 3 and all Y’s”.
anti-blocking
“So the extension of the shelter in place or, frankly, I would call it, forcibly imprisoning people in their homes against their entire constitutional alliance, that is my opinion, and breaking people’s freedoms in ways that They are horrible and wrong and not why people came to America or built this country.”
A defiant Musk said in a May 11, 2020 tweet that “Tesla is restarting production today against Alameda County rules, I’ll be in line with everyone else. If anyone gets arrested I ask that it only be me.” .
The billionaire continues his campaign against confinement. He recently attacked Dr. Anthony Fauci, the face of the American response to the pandemic. Musk even goes so far as to demand that Dr. Fauci be prosecuted.
“My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci,” Musk wrote on Twitter on December 11.
Although he calls himself pro-vaccine, Musk has been highly critical in recent weeks about the need for a second covid booster shot, even as health authorities report a spike in covid-19 cases in everyone.
“I’m all for vaccines in general, but there is a point where the cure/vaccine is potentially worse, if given to the entire population, than the disease,” he said on January 15 when asked by a Twitter user “To what extent are you anti-vaccination? Mandate? Covid Vax in general?
‘I had major side effects’
All these sensational statements linked to covid-19 could therefore logically lead Musk’s fans and detractors to conclude that he had not been given a second booster. The billionaire just surprised everyone.
“I had major side effects with my second booster shot,” the billionaire tweeted on Jan. 21. “I felt like I was dying for several days. Hopefully there was no permanent damage, but I don’t know.”
“Did you take a second booster shot?” asked a surprised Twitter user. “I thought you were smarter than that.”
Musk, who does not say when he received the second covid booster shot, replied that he had no choice because he had to visit Tesla’s European factory near Berlin. However, a second covid booster shot there is required to enter the site, he said.
“I was obliged to visit Tesla Giga Berlin. It was not my choice,” said the billionaire.
He later shared that he was not the only one in his family who had had serious and severe side effects from the second covid booster shot.
“And my cousin, who is young and in good health, had a bad case of myocarditis. She had to go to the hospital,” said the billionaire.
Reactions reported after receiving a booster shot are similar, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, to those after two-dose or single-dose primary injections.
“Most of the side effects were mild to moderate,” the CDC says in its website. Adverse events, including severe allergic reactions, are “rare but can occur.”
The billionaire also told his story with anti-Covid-19 solutions and reinforcements. It seems that the most serious side effects appeared with the second booster injection.
“I had OG C19 before the vaccines came out and it was basically a mild cold,” the billionaire said. “Then I had the J&J vaccine with no ill effects, except that my arm hurt briefly. The first mRNA boost was fine, but the second one squashed me.”
