    maybe instead of making fake vaccines / meds - they will actually put forth a genuine product now. Got to feel sorry for all the poor folks that have to rely on their cheap shotty shyster medical industry - much bigger than their honest one.

    This isn't the first time Toyota&Panasonic have created a new battery making company together... The fact it took them so long to make this announcement points to how behind both of them are, especially now that Tesla is done with moving ahead with Panasonic and taking on new manufacturing partners. Panasonic was used as leverage for the building of the first Gigafactory, but Tesla went way beyond what they need from them these days.
