President Donald Trump was tested on Friday night for the COVID-19 novel coronavirus after exposure last weekend during a meeting in Florida with Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro and his entourage.

The president made the announcement at a White House briefing on Saturday, confirming he had taken the test, saying “I decided I should.” Trump said he is awaiting results, for “two days, whatever it is.”
