After it was revealed late Thursday night via Donald Trump's Twitter account that he and the First Lady both contracted COVID-19, reports have since surfaced that his condition has been worsening.

JUST IN: A source familiar with the president's condition tells reporters:

“The president’s vitals over the last 24 hours were very concerning and the next 48 hours will be critical in terms of his care. We’re still not on a clear path to a full recovery.”

According to CBS reporter Steven Portnoy, a source knowledgeable of the presidents condition has said, “The president’s vitals over the last 24 hours were very concerning and the next 48 hours will be critical in terms of his care. We’re still not on a clear path to a full recovery.”

This news comes just after images surfaced earlier on Saturday showing what appears to be a portable oxygen concentrator under Trump's suit, with its tubes tucked under his mask to assist his breathing.

With Trump sidelined, the campaign is looking into ways to stage virtual events and plan to rely on surrogates for in person events, such as Pence, Lara, Don Jr., and Eric. Each have tested negativehttps://t.co/9DH9OhFgv6
