Ten years from now I think Tesla will be more of an IP and parts company. I think the big autos distribution, manufacturing and marketing capacity will start to overwhelm Tesla. It'll probably end up making its money licensing it'

It feels a bit like a re-run of AIDS in the Mid 80's, but luckily this time we do have a vaccine for it. It will be interesting to see how the growth of this virus compares with Covid and if epidemiologists can learn anything from it.
