'I think I took it really out of curiosity to see how quickly it worked,' said Trump, who took the newly released Abbott Laboratories test that offers results in 15 minutes or less.

WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump said he underwent a second coronavirus test on Thursday, using a new diagnostic that produced a result in less than 15 minutes, and it determined he has not been infected.

At his daily White House news briefing, Trump said Americans should wear protective face masks if they wish."If people want to wear them, they can" he said. Scarves work just as well, he said. "Some people are getting out that are very serious criminals in some states, and I don't like that. I don't like it," he said.

Trump announced that the U.S. military and federal personnel will operate a makeshift hospital set up in the Javits Center convention center in New York to help the city grapple with a flood of patients. The Javits Center operation will treat non-coronavirus patients, freeing up hospitals to care for those with the virus.
