Tech behemoth Apple has donated more than 30 million face masks and 10 million face shields to healthcare workers around the world during the pandemic, MailOnline understands. Exact breakdowns of where the PPE has been distributed remains unknown but it is believed frontline workers globally received items throughout 2020. The endeavour started in March and CEO Tim Cook announced on April 5 that Apple's vast resources and expertise would be repurposed to churn out one million masks a week. This target, set 36 weeks ago, has been exceeded by the company. Apple has also donated $5 million to various coronavirus-related causes this festive period, it revealed today.
