Trump said his administration would take a look at a suggestion from former Food and Drugs Commissioner Scott Gottlieb that all Americans wear a mask when out in public to help halt the spread of the virus.
"After we get back into gear ... I could see something like that happening for a period of time, but I would hope it would be a very limited period of time," he said.
The US president also informed that the United States had begun acquiring personal protective equipment from overseas.
