A company spokesperson has stated that the new set of reactions have been designed to give users additional ways to display their support to those affected by the ongoing coronavirus crisis.
He also added that the emojis are just a small gesture during this crisis and do not guarantee income or food on the table nor does it give a cure to the pandemic. However, it serves as an important aspect of support systems for ones that are suffering from isolation.
