U.S. President Donald Trump said he would 'most likely' get tested for the coronavirus, after he was pressed by reporters asking about his contact with a Brazilian official who tested positive for the coronavirus.

"I didn't say I wasn't going to be tested," Trump said.

A reporter followed up by asking if he was going to be, and Trump responded "most likely, yea." This comes after Trump on Friday declared a national emergency over the fast-spreading coronavirus, opening the door to providing what he said was about $50 billion in federal aid to fight the disease.
