<p>The care packages contain some snacks, face masks and even a new <a href="https://appleinsider.com/inside/10.2-inch-ipad" target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">10.2-inch iPad</a>. Also enclosed with the items is a letter from Apple, to the employee.</p>
<blockquote><p>Dear Colleagues in Hubei and Wenzhou, </p>
<p>We hope this note finds you heathy and well. Since the last communication with you, we understand that you are all staying strong in this challenging time. We understand the difficulties you are facing and would like to provide our best support to you and your families. Hubei and the city of Wuhan have been hit hardest by the coronavirus outbreak, which has now claimed 2,835 lives in China. </p>
<p>We are sending our best wishes to you, on behalf of the entire Apple Team, together with another CareKit for you and your families. In the kit, you will find comfort items and an iPad which can be used to facilitate children’s online learning or help pass the time during the prolonged stay at home. </p>
<p>In addition, a series of counselling and consultation services have been prepared especially for you to help you through this time.</p>
