Trump says to 'read the manuals' when asked who told him that you can 'test too much' for COVID-19

President Donald Trump said in a new interview that there's such a thing as too much testing for coronavirus.

When asked where he got his information from, Trump told "Axios on HBO" host Jonathan Swan to "read the manuals" and "read the books."

The president frequently alternates between praising himself for the US's expanding testing capability and claiming that testing is "overrated" and makes the country "look bad."

He's also falsely said that the US has the world's worst coronavirus outbreak because it does more testing than any other country.
