"Not for that reason but because I think I will do it anyway," Trump said. "Fairly soon, we-re working out a schedule.

This comes after a Brazilian official, who dined and photographed with Trump and Vice President Mike Pence last weekend in Florida has been diagnosed with the coronavirus. Fabio Wajngarten, the press secretary for the Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, had met the US President at Mar-a-Lago in Florida. Trump said that White House doctors have told him that he does not need to be tested because he is showing no symptoms.
