As Coronavirus Reached the U.S., Trump Admin Tapped Ex-Labradoodle Breeder to Lead Task Force
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reuters reports Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar tapped
Brian Harrison, a longtime dog breeder with minimal public health
experience, to head the U.S. coronavirus task force just as the first
case of COVID-19 was detected in the U.S. in late January. Before he
joined HHS in 2018, Harrison ran a company called Dallas Labradoodles.
