The harrowing moment is seen as a body is seen removed from the emergency room and placed into a refrigerated trailer used to store coronavirus dead at a hospital in Queens, New York on Monday (April 6).

Reports indicate many patients being brought into the emergency room on stretchers. First responders are seen taking multiple precautions, exhausted and stressed nurses, one nurse giving a solidarity chest bump. Personal protective equipment is disposed of in large trash buckets.

Reports at the scene describe a conversation with a hospital employee who said that speaking to media could result in termination.
