In the UK here, I have heard the bed occupancy is low because people are afraid to go to the emergency room out of fear of catching COVID. So there are typically a number of people who die every month. Then you have the number who have died of COVID. But now they have a larger than expected people die of non-COVID. Question is do these extras die of COVID but not tested or the fear of COVID and not getting help. As for Elon Musk, and most famous people, I treat there opinions with no more credibility than I do the grocer or the shoe shine. Just because some media person decides to repeat your words does not make it right. Of course if I see it on Hacker News thats a different story ... Not that it is more accurate, but it will be better vetted. Others will chime in with counter opinion. Its not a one way street.
