Here is some sample data below. The data is based on tasks activity and I want to count the unique Task Names when Labels column contains "Weekly". I'm trying to determine the unique tasks names and what their freqnecies are.
| Task Name | Label |

| Crouse Health - Future Visibility | Weekly;Future Visibility |
| Internal Delivery - Influenza Vaccination Status | Weekly;Credential Data |
| Crouse Health - Future Visibility | Weekly;Future Visibility |
