President Donald Trump was asked at Wednesday's Coronavirus Task Force press conference why he continues to call the COVID-19 strain the "Chinese virus."

"Because it comes from China," he said. When pressed further, Trump added, "As you know, China ... tried to say it came from American soldiers. That can't happen. It's not going to happen, not while I'm president."
