White House to meet Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple

The White House will host a meeting Wednesday with Alphabet Inc.’s Google, Amazon.com Inc., Facebook Inc., and other tech companies to coordinate responses to the growing coronavirus outbreak.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media that the meeting will be hosted by U.S. Chief Technology Officer Michael Kratsios, according to a spokeswoman for the White House’s Office of Science and Technology Policy.

Representatives of Microsoft Corp., Apple Inc., Twitter Inc. as well as officials from various federal agencies will also attend the session, said the spokeswoman, Elena Hernandez.

Social media companies, in particular, have been at the forefront of attempting to stop misinformation on the virus, while companies such as Amazon have attempted to manage panic selling of goods.

President Donald Trump has been critical of some of the companies, especially Amazon, whose founder, Jeff Bezos, also owns the Washington Post.
