Can someone more knowledgeable in table formatting change the way the table is sorted? It appears that the "surname, given name" pattern is used in case someone wants to sort alphabetically. However, it makes it less readable. Also, it doesn't work. Bait30 Talk 2 me pls? 01:39, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
Televised White House Coronavirus Task Force was under the leadership of President Trump himself, similar to in New York State and other US states, the Chief Executive or Governor (e.g, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of New York State). Chief Executives never turned the Covid-19 crisis over to their health department leads at either the state or federal levels, though all health care department heads were online in their presentations to the public. The wiki on "designees" is technically correct; the emergency orders, issued state by state, were from the Chief Executive "him or herself" with one laggard (at attempts not to mandate and lockdown). 2603:7081:2000:3EF3:55BA:E5A2:2987:EC6C ( talk) 23:44, 7 July 2022 (UTC)JARacino 2603:7081:2000:3EF3:55BA:E5A2:2987:EC6C ( talk) 23:44, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
Seems like SandyGeorgia and myself both can't establish whether Brett Giroir is a member of the taskforce. If anyone finds a source to indicate he's a member or not, update the article or link it here. NativeForeigner Talk 05:33, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
Mark Esper spoke at today's press briefing, need to see if he is Task Force member. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 16:27, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
I don't speak images, but I think this can be used for Robert Blair:
Does that mean it is public domain? Can someone upload it? SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 16:04, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
I am unable to decipher what this series of edits that I reverted was attempting to do. Pence is the Chair, Birx is the Coordinator, and the rest are alphabetical, but sortable. 20:59, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
Why are some members "appointed" and others "added"? What's the difference? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.181.19.30 ( talk) 17:24, April 9, 2020 (UTC)
I created White House Economic Task Force on April 9, and User:TJMSmith created Opening Our Country Council on April 11. We'll have to determine how to merge/redirect these this week, but for now, just putting this task force creation on editors' radar and welcoming feedback.

I think this page should have an Infobox, this can help people better understand it. What does everyone think? @ SandyGeorgia: what do you think? Stay safe, EditQwerty ( talk) 09:10, 21 April 2020 (UTC)EditQwerty
@ EditQwerty: I agree with you. 2A02:C7F:9E36:BE00:A04C:5376:ABE9:B18B ( talk) 11:54, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
@ SandyGeorgia: Mike Pence is the vice president and head of the task force, Jerome Adams is the Surgeon General, Anthony Fauci is the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and, Deborah Birx is Coronavirus Response Coordinator (I will add Deborah Birx now, but you get the point)
They are all notable. Stay safe, EditQwerty ( talk) 13:22, 21 April 2020 (UTC)EditQwerty Stay safe, EditQwerty ( talk) 14:33, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
Let's say if I was in in the Republican Party, I'm a member; that doesn't make me a "key person".
The key people are Deborah Birx, Mike Pence and, Jerome Adams. I was wrong about Dr. Fauci
According to Mike Pence's Wikipedia page, he is the chair, Deborah Birx is the White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator and, Jerome Adams is the Surgeon General of the United States. Stay safe, EditQwerty ( talk) 14:33, 21 April 2020 (UTC)EditQwerty

Magnovvig do you have a source for this addition ? Giving a briefing does not make one a member. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 09:38, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
The Task Force briefings have included members of the Task Force and non-members, as well: for example, on April 20, the President invited to the podium USACE Gen. Semonite to brief the nation on his construction scheme for triage hospitals in large disused public auditoriums, [1] like the Miami Beach Convention Center. [2] The USACE has or will construct approximately 16,000 beds in at least 32 facilities nation-wide. [1]

Unfairnessdoctrine, I am unsure what to do with Fleming. The source you provided [1] states that he is a member of the Task Force, but I can find no official source that actually says that (rather that he is coordinating via Meadows). We have White House press releases for other appointments to the Task Forces, and then we have people who ended up in See also because they made appearances at press briefings or have had some role, even if not actual members. I am unable to figure out, in the absence of a press release or some other source indicating he is actually a member, whether I should add him to the chart. Any further sources or information? SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 16:23, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
Looking at the WH press release for 29 January, I see the formal name of the task force was the "President's Coronavirus Task Force" Link. Not sure how we got to White House Coronavirus Task Force or why, but the original name should be noted in the article. Bdushaw ( talk) 12:41, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
I am restoring the "Actions" section, which was reverted by
User:SandyGeorgia with the edit summary the two citations given are to the same source, it does not mention this task force, but a different one. The two references, both from the New York Times, specifically name this task force. The one about the cruise ships says But at a meeting of the coronavirus task force on Tuesday, Dr. Redfield’s plan was overruled.
The one about masks says the White House Coronavirus Task Force, led by Vice President Mike Pence, declined to even discuss it. ... A task force official said the decision to require masks should be left up to states and localities. The administration requires the task force to sign off on coronavirus-related policies.
I'm open to discussion if you think there is some other reason to remove the information. --
