The stars of Supernatural are thanking a longtime fan and health worker for his efforts during the current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.Nurse Eric Thayer recently posted a picture of himself on Twitter wearing a surgical mask inscribed with a pentagram, a common mystical symbol in the world of Supernatural. This prompted a response from Padalecki and Collins.
"Can you check the lore and tell me if this protects against demons AND COVID?" Thayer asked, tagging Collins, Padalecki and their mutual co-star Jensen Ackles.
"We'll fight the demons. You fight the COVID." Collins responded. "Thank you for protecting us. We will always be grateful."
"One of us plays a hero and one of us is a hero," Padalecki added. "From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for holding the line."
