The White House is firing back at allegations of secrecy in its handling of coronavirus by saying it’s actually exercising “radical transparency.”

Officials said that Vice President Mike Pence, the administration’s point person on the virus, has not classified any meetings of his 19-member coronavirus task force, even though they are held in the secure White House Situation Room.

“As the lead of the Coronavirus Task Force, Vice President Pence has held the meetings in the Situation Room at the unclassified level,” spokeswoman Katie Miller told The Post.

On Wednesday Reuters reported that the White House National Security Council ordered the Department of Health and Human Services to confine information on the virus to a room for classified material.

One official told Reuters that “we had some very critical people who did not have security clearances who could not go [into the room]. These should not be classified meetings. It was unnecessary.” The news wire quoted a source alleging, “this came directly from the White House.”

Miller said Pence was not involved in the alleged hushing at HHS.

“It did not come from the Vice President, who is the leader of the task force,” she said.

An NSC spokesman did not specifically comment on HHS’s handling of coronavirus information, but said the office is using “radical transparency” during the crisis.

“From day one of the response to the coronavirus, NSC has insisted on the principle of radical transparency, and White House coronavirus task force meetings have all been held at the unclassified level,” NSC spokesman John Ullyot said.

Ullyot added: “In fact, the transparent U.S. interagency coordination and unprecedented whole-of-government approach to coronavirus has cut red tape and set the global standard in protecting the American people under President Trump’s leadership.”

Administration officials previously pushed back on reports that they are trying to silence government officials. After Pence became the administration’s point person on the virus, task force members said a New York Times report misinterpreted instructions that they seek permission for media engagements. The Times reported Pence was asserting tighter control on messaging.

Pence’s Situation Room meetings generally occur in the afternoon before he and other task force members brief journalists on the virus that has infected more than 1,000 U.S. residents and killed at least 31.

Task force member Anthony Fauci offered an ominous warning Wednesday: “Things will get worse than they are right now.”
