近来，双手合十表情包越来越多的出现在推特中，表达网友们面对这场疫情中的健康危机时方方面面的感受。网友们用这个表情包感谢一线工作人员，为挚爱祈祷，乃至于为在超市货架上发现卫生纸而表达感激。据研究推特表情包趋势和频率的Emojipedia网站分析，该表情包也被称为“祈祷手”，今年4月份的使用频率比去年8月份增长了25%。这也让其排在4月最受欢迎表情包的第八位，巩固了其疫情期间作为网友表达情绪的视觉符号的地位。

The folded hands emoji has popped up in more tweets than ever before to help express our feelings about seemingly every aspect of a health crisis that can sometimes defy words. It's used to give thanks to frontline workers, send prayers to loved ones and express gratitude for finding toilet paper on supermarket shelves. The emoji, sometimes called prayer hands, was used 25% more often in April than in August, the last time that particular character was analyzed by Emojipedia, which tracks trends and frequency of emoji use on Twitter. That spike made it the eighth most popular emoji for the month — and cemented its position as a visual emblem for how we feel during the pandemic.
