In an attempt to strengthen communities affected by COVID-19, Governor Brian Kemp announced in a press release today that he has created four separate Coronavirus Task Force Committees. Each committee member named will serve to strengthen their respective areas through the Economic Impact Committee, Primary Care Provider Committee, Emergency Preparedness Committee and Committee for the Homeless and Displaced.
The Governor says this is different than the original Cornavirus Task Force created in February. That one was created to prepare for it coming, while these committees have been created to navigate, and lessen, it’s impact.
"Now, as we mitigate the spread of the virus, these committees will address the specific impacts that COVID-19 will have on communities, industry sectors, our healthcare system, and emergency preparedness,” says Kemp. “I have full confidence in these committees to serve the needs of all Georgians during this challenging time. In the weeks ahead, we will continue to ensure that our state stands ready for any scenario."
