President Trump acknowledging late today the virus is not under control and sharing his own personal experience.

What his young son asked him, as many Americans fear that what they're seeing in Europe is about to play out here.

Here's ABC senior White House correspondent Cecilia Vega.

Tonight, despite widespread delays over testing and repeated mixed messages from his own administration today, President Trump gave himself high marks.

And on a scale of 1 to 10 how would you rate your response to this crisis?

I think we've done a great job normally, but I think when you hear the you know, this has never been done before in this country.

But the confusing messages from the administration continued The New York Times, reporting that President Trump stunned some of the nation's governors in a conference call telling them they should not wait for the federal government's help with respirators, ventilators and other critical life saving equipment, telling them they should quote, try getting it yourselves.

Asked about that today, the president did not back down.

If they can get them directly, it's always gonna be faster if they could get them directly.

I've given them authorization to order directly.

President Trump had said the virus would just disappear.

How are you talking your own family about this?

How are you talking to your youngest son?

Do you empathize with this sense of anxiety?

All you can do is a professional, totally confident.

But I think that I think that what we do and I've spoken actually with my son, he says.

The president himself was exposed to the Corona virus a little over a week ago.
