4 年前

Healthcare workers looked on from inside Jamaica Hospital in Queens on April 3 as New York City firefighters applauded their work treating coronavirus (COVID-19) patients.

This video was taken by a healthcare worker inside the hospital on Friday evening, when similar shows of support were recorded elsewhere in the city.

Queens has been the borough worst hit by the city’s COVID-19 outbreak. As of the morning of April 4, over 59,000 confirmed positive cases had been recorded in New York City, including at least 1,905 deaths tied to the virus. Of those cases, a third were recorded in Queens, while at least 590 deaths have occurred in the borough — the most of any county in the State. Credit: @haiethcapisanan via Storyful
