New England Patriots’ jet delivers more than 1 million virus masks to Massachusetts
The New England Patriots’ jet delivered more than one million protective masks for Massachusetts’ front-line health workers on Thursday morning.
The jet, belonging to team owner Robert Kraft, flew the equipment all the way from China, and landed in Boston around 7 a.m.
Gov. Charlie Baker was at Boston Logan International Airport when the plane arrived.
No days off. Thanks to some serious teamwork, Massachusetts is set to receive over 1 million N95 masks for our front-line workers. Huge thanks to the Krafts and several dedicated partners for making this happen. pic.twitter.com/ieV6XMC5Ow

The Massachusetts National Guard, according to Politico, will transport the equipment to a strategic stockpile in Marlboro, Mass.
On Tuesday, the Massachusetts Military Support Foundation, along with other charities, distributed boxes designed to provide meals for two people for 14 days outside Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.
