California Gov. Gavin Newsom has appointed a dentist to the state's Business and Jobs Recovery Task Force, according to the California Dental Association.
Natasha Lee, DDS, a San Francisco-based dentist, was appointed April 17 to California's Economic Recovery Task Force. Dr. Lee is also a member of CDA's COVID-19 Clinical Care Workgroup and Economic Recovery Workgroup.
"I am honored that dozens of leaders in business, labor, health and philanthropy are stepping up to meet this moment by committing their time and talent to lift up all Californians," said Mr. Newsom in a news release.
The task force, led by both Mr. Newsom's Chief of Staff Ann O'Leary and philanthropist, environmentalist and businessman Tom Steyer, will focus on the regions and communities hit hardest by the pandemic.
