“I just took it this morning,” he told a press conference. “It said the President tested negative for COVID-19.”
This was Mr. Trump’s second test. This time he used a new rapid method that he said took a minute to complete and barely 15 minutes to return a result.
“I took it out of curiosity to see how quickly it worked. It is a lot easier. I have done them both. The second one is much more pleasant,” the President said.
