TikTok donates masks for Covid-19

Leading short-video platform, TikTok has shown its support to the crisis caused by COVID-19 in India. Tiktok has committed to donating 400,000 hazmat medical protective suits and 200,000 masks to protect doctors and front line medical staff in India. This act by TikTok shows that the company is not only helping citizens to be entertained with videos during the lockdown period but is also showing its support to mitigating the crisis.

While citizens are practicing social distancing and staying at home as a preventive measure, India's medical personnel are working tirelessly to keep all of us safe and protected. As a result, India's medical doctors and health workers are the most vulnerable and exposed to the virus. At times like these, their safety is of utmost priority, urges TikTok. Additionally, TikTok will extend the contribution to cover local/state level medical workers, as the company has donated 200,000 masks, to Delhi and Maharashtra Government.

The statement released by TikTok says, "Keeping the safety of India's medical personnel in mind, TikTok is donating 400,000 hazmat medical protective suits and masks - as an important safety measure. The Government of India has been making concerted efforts to contain the spread of the virus and through this donation, we want to contribute towards this effort. With support from the Union Ministry of Textile, this essential gear, which meets the prescribed standards and guidelines, is being handed over to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India. As a responsible organization committed to the safety and security of citizens in India, we are open to extending further support by way of additional donations in the coming time."
