Verden er presset lige nu på grund af Coronavirusudbrudet, men der findes heldigvis stadig dem der, tilsyneladende, vil hjælpe uden at forvente noget afgørende igen. Igår kunne TV-avisen afsløre at Michelin-restauranten Gastromé har brugt alle deres råvarer på at forberede gratis frokoster til sygepersonale på Århus' hospitaler, og Razer har omlagt dele af deres produktion til at lave mundbind til læger, sygeplejere og også privatpersoner ganske gratis.
Netop mundbind har der nemlig været mangel på i store dele af den vestlige verden, så for nylig afslørede Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan via Twitter, at de har arbejdet i døgndrigt på at omlægge deres produktion, og de arbejder nu på at producere noget der ligner en million mundbind gratis til regeringer verden over.
"So I haven't had much sleep over the past couple of days to get this initiative up and running, but I'm happy to be able to announce this on behalf of the team here at @Razer. While there has been incredible demand for our products during this time with many staying home to avoid the crowds (and to play games), the team at @Razer understands that all of us have a part to play in fighting the virus - no matter which industry we come from. Over the past few days, our designers and engineers have been working 24-hour shifts to convert some of our existing manufacturing lines to produce surgical masks so that we can donate them to countries around the world. We intend to donate up to 1M masks to the health authorities of different countries globally. For starters, we've been in touch with the authorities in Singapore (where the @Razer SEA HQ is based) to donate some of the initial shipments to assist their fight against COVID-19."
Det er nu meget fint, synes vi, indbygget markedsføring taget i betragtning også.
