As guests of the Kraft family, 76 healthcare heroes are Bowl bound.
Earlier this week, Robert Kraft called to personally invite some of these heroes and thank them for their work fighting COVID-19. New England Patriots (@Patriots) February 2, 2021
The red, white and blue Patriot plane will take the health care workers down and back. Nick Duncan, director of emergency medical management at Tufts Medical Center, will be on board, too. Desperately needed supplies have arrived after the Patriots plane traveled to China to retrieve 1.7 million N95 masks.
“It is unique, right? They delivered the PPE that we were all talking about back in March and now here we are taking it to the Super Bowl as kind of a joyous celebration,” Duncan said.
