NJ has officially announced the 21 members of its COVID
Taskforce. According to Governor Murphy, the NJ taskforce "is
composed of experts in a multitude of fields — from academia
to industry to the arts to labor, and so much more," he said.
"They bring passion and vision to the table. And, if
there's anything we need right now, it's both."
The group will include 16 members and 5 ex-officio members from
the Murphy administration. It will be co-chaired by Merck Chair and
CEO Ken Frazier and former Princeton President Shirley
Tilghman.
"They will address core economic issues, but also issues
which directly impact economic health — notably public
health, workforce issues and transportation," he said.
"And, they will seek ways to sustain our recovery by
maximizing future federal support, especially for our small
business sector."
