\"Elon's positioning is to maintain a high level of outrageous comments,\" Gates said in a CNBC interview. \"He's not much involved in vaccines. He makes a great electric car. And his rockets work well. So he's allowed to say these things. I hope that he doesn't confuse areas he's not involved in too much.\"<\/p>\n
Gates, who has been vocal about the Unites States' handling of the coronavirus and the importance of developing effective vaccines, made the comments after Musk posted a June 30 tweet suggesting that many positive COVID-19 tests could be false.<\/p>\n
