President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the coronavirus task force will keep working “indefinitely,” a day after he and other officials suggested it would be phased out in the coming weeks.
While the task force is not going away, it may replace some members and will shift its focus toward an economic reopening in the U.S., Trump said in a series of tweets.
The group, led by Vice President Mike Pence, “has done a fantastic job of bringing together vast highly complex resources,” such as ventilators, face masks and testing systems, Trump said.
