US President-elect Biden to announce COVID-19 task force

US President-elect Joe Biden on Monday will announce a 12-member task force to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, including a former surgeon general and current Yale professor.

Biden spent much of his election campaign criticizing President Donald Trump’s handling of the pandemic. The US saw a record number of new infections last week, with the total number of cases nearing 10 million.

After four days of uncertainty as votes were counted in key states, Biden’s victory on Saturday in Pennsylvania put him over the threshold of 270 Electoral College votes he needed to clinch the presidency.

Trump has not conceded and has vowed to challenge the outcome in court.
