Google is running a COVID-19 mask Doodle to reinforce the messaging that wearing masks can save lives, in the midst of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases across the globe. The Doodle which is scheduled for the 4th and 5th of August has gone live across 60 countries including South Africa, Kenya and Nigeria, today.
Wear A Mask. Save Lives, is with the aim to impact communities around the world and help stop the spread of COVID-19 even as it continues. This includes coronavirus tips and resources to help you and your communities stay informed and connected through technology and digital skills training.
