Victor Blue, a photographer, and I spent some time at Brooklyn Hospital. “So what is he on, drug-wise?” This hospital, just within the last week, had almost doubled the capacity to treat patients in the intensive care unit. I think what really stood out to me was the toll on the medical providers and the fact that so many of the staff members are sick. One of the hospital’s employees was admitted to the intensive care unit while I was there. The doctors, the nurses, the staff members— they’re trying not to let it get them down, trying to focus on the task at hand.
