Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk revealed he had taken four coronavirus point-of-care tests in a twenty-four-hour time, of which two came back positive and two negative.

The billionaire noted that he was prompted to get checked after experiencing symptoms of a "typical" cold and went on to challenge the rapid test's accuracy, suggesting something "extremely bogus" might be going on. "Same machine, same test, same nurse," he explained in a tweet.

"If it's happening to me, it's happening to others," he added, promising to get PCR tests done at different labs and update when the results are in, which he expects to be in about twenty-four hours.
