White House COVID-19 Response Team

The White House COVID-19 Response Team was the task force during the presidency of Joe Biden to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.

It was set up by President Joe Biden on his first day in office[1] – January 20, 2021 – and replaced President Donald Trump's White House Coronavirus Task Force and President Biden's transitional COVID-19 Advisory Board.

The task force was established by Executive Order 13987.

The task force disbanded in May 2023 when the COVID-19 emergency officially ended in the United States.
