Along with Christmas, the military headquarters of the United States and Canada will carry out an annual live broadcast of Santa Claus on the Internet, and this is due to the influence of the new coronavirus, the appearance of Santa Claus running around the world wearing a mask. It was confirmed.
The NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command), which is made up of the US and Canadian forces, usually warns of missiles, but every year, it carries out a "special mission" to track Santa Claus in time for Christmas.
On the special website, etc., from the night of the 24th of Japan time, a live broadcast of Santa Claus riding a reindeer-drawn sleigh and distributing gifts around the world was broadcast.
Due to the influence of the new coronavirus, Santa Claus is also wearing a mask, and the deputy commander of the United States Northern Command says, "Santa Claus is taking all necessary precautions to protect the reindeer himself."
This annual "special mission" began 65 years ago when a child mistakenly called military headquarters saying "I want to talk to Santa Claus."
At NORAD, many volunteers respond to children's inquiries by telephone etc. every year, but the fact is that the number of volunteers is reduced due to the influence of the new coronavirus and they are responding at home.
