 (CNN)—New emoji icons are coming to Facebook.

Instead of just giving a smiley face or a thumbs up to react on the social media platform, users now have a new way to show friends and family support during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The new “Care” reaction is a smiley face hugging a heart.

It rolls out Friday to both Facebook and Facebook messenger.
