At a press conference, WHO's Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus says "we continue to see misinformation on social media and mainstream media about the pandemic accord that countries are now negotiating". Earlier on Twitter, Elon Musk wrote "countries should not cede authority to WHO". Without naming the South African billionaire directly, the WHO chief says "the claim that the accord will cede power to WHO is quite simply false. It's fake news". SOUNDBITE
Chelsea Lauren; Pascal Le Segretain/Getty Images Azealia Banks has been subpoenaed in a class action lawsuit concerning Elon Musk's tweets about taking Tesla private at $420 per share. "The first round of Elon Musk bulls--- was stressful enough," Banks said. "I don't have the bandwidth for another row with him." Business Insider has also been subpoenaed. In 2019, a judge granted the motion to serve document-preservation subpoenas against Banks and Business Insider, as well as Grimes, The New York Times, and Gizmodo.
Tesla’s issues with faulty production and inconsistent quality extend outside the U.S. market: As first reported by Bloomberg, the automaker is set to recall close to 30,000 of its imported Model S and Model X cars from China, citing problems surrounding the vehicle’s suspension systems. Per a statement from China’s State Administration for Market Regulation—a relatively new and broadly empowered agency with functions similar to the SEC, CFTC, FDA, and USPTO in the United States—Tesla’s Beijing branch issued recalls for 29,193 Model X or Model S cars made between September 17th, 2013 and January 15th, 2018. The vehicles built during that roughly four-and-a-half year window may have rolled off the factory line with major suspension defects.
Europe's first Hyperloop facility was unveiled in Delft on Thursday and aims to cut down the commute between European capitals to a matter of minutes. Hyperloop creators teamed up with Dutch organisation Hardt, the Technical University of Delft, and construction company BAM for the project. The consortium hope that Hyperloop will soon shoot passengers at breakneck speeds in driverless pods through low-pressure tubes throughout the continent. First tests are to be launched in the end of 2017 with the first hyperloop line to be up and running by 2019.

Sunday was a momentous day for entrepreneur and billionaire Elon Musk's proposed Hyperloop transportation system. A team from the Delft University of Technology took home the first prize in a world-wide competition set up by SpaceX founder Musk to design and build a Hyperloop pod. They came out on top of two other teams during a test run of their pod in Los Angeles on Sunday. The Delft team was one of three to proceed to the final stage of the competition, with a team from the Technical University of Munich winning the award for the fastest Hyperloop pod and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology coming third overall. The SpaceX Hyperloop competition began in 2015, but this year was the first time participants in the final were able to test their Hyperloop pod on a mile-long track. Hyperloop is billed as the next generation of ultra-fast transportation. Transport pods will shoot through a closed vacuum tube at speeds of over 700 miles per hour.
