"We had old-fashioned tests that didn't work ... they were broken" -- this is complete nonsense from Trump. The novel coronavirus didn't exist until late 2019, so there were no tests for him to inherit.

Actually they most often do. Typically due to mutations.

(experts say more testing is necessary)

I'm having issues with the logic here. If one only tests positive for two or three weeks with the virus is the plan to test the entire population within every two week period? If an instantaneous test existed this could be viable but still unrealistic. Only those with symptoms or likely exposed are seeking tests and we should soon be at capacity to manage that.
