Following serious pressure by the media at a press conference in the White House this Friday in the wake of declaring a national emergency over the coronavirus outbreak, President Trump potentially ended speculation as to whether or not he’ll get tested for the virus during an exchange with a reporter.

A reporter asked “Are you being selfish by not getting tested and potentially exposing…”

Just before the question of ended Trump replied “Well, I didn’t say I wasn’t going to be tested,” Trump interrupted.

“Are you going to be?” the reporter pressed.

“Most likely, yeah,” Trump said.
