2020-04-29 | Mattel action figures honor 'everyday heroes' on front lines

'If that wasn’t enough, Mattel has pledged to produce 500,000 face shields for health-care workers in order to help curb the rampant supply shortages plaguing US hospitals. '

'Toy giant Mattel is now honoring workers on the front lines of the coronavirus fight, by releasing a special series of action figures modeled after the first responders who are valiantly putting their lives at risk to save others from the disease. '

'Chuck Scothon, who’s also the global head of infant and preschool at Mattel, says: “It is our hope that Fisher-Price toys, and play in general, can ultimately make these difficult times easier for both kids and adults.:'

'Last week, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that at least 9,200 US healthcare professionals had been infected with COVID-19 during the nationwide epidemic.“#ThankYouHeroes is designed to immortalize and honor health-care and everyday heroes,” says Chuck Scothon, senior vice president of Mattel subsidiary Fisher-Price in a statement. '

'A New York City EMT and ER doctor recently committed suicide after being overwhelmed by the onslaught of coronavirus deaths, while a survey of Chinese health-care workers revealed that over half of the hospital employees experience depression. '
