Google to Skip April Fools' Day pranks amid COVID-19 Epidemic:

Today is April 1st, the 'April Fool'. On this day, people make fun of each other by fooling and joking.

But this time is not exactly the right time for the Coronavirus to terrorize the world. Because now is not a fun time to fool or joke others. Internet giants Google has also meditated on this seriousness and decided not to flower this April.

According to the news, Google canceled April fool’s Day prank this year. Lorin Toohill, head of Google's marketing department, wrote to the company's top staff via email, stating that Google had stopped its tradition of celebrating April this year.

The email states, "In the general case, April Fools is a tradition of Google. This shows that Google is not a traditional company and it is fun. But this year we're honoring those who are battling the epidemic of the coronavirus. Our biggest goal now is to be a helper to people. So let’s keep our jokes up for next April. It will definitely be a lot more fun than it is now. '

Google has been celebrating April Fools for two decades. On April 1st, Google ranks it on its various platforms.

But this time, Google has embedded itself in the fight against Corona. Google has committed $800 million in support of COVID-19 support operations.

In a blog post, the CEO of the company, Sundar Pichai, said that in collaboration with Magid Glove and Safety Company, Google is working to produce masks from 20 to 30 million. He also said that financial assistance would also be given to increase the production capacity of important medical devices and PPIs.

Likewise, Google will publish $250 million worth of free advertising to the World Health Organization and various government agencies, and will provide $340 million worth of advertising loan assistance to small and medium-sized businesses operating in the health sector.
