The hospital has requested items from ventilators and anti-body tests to an Uber car ride home for a nurse.

NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- One New York City hospital is asking for donations to help with equipment shortages amid the coronavirus pandemic.



Mount Sinai posted a link on the hospital's website that allows donors to select gift amounts and medical equipment they'd like to donate.



The hospital requested several items that range from ventilators and anti-body tests to an Uber car ride home for a nurse.



The hospital took action after images surfaced online in recent weeks showing nurses at Mount Sinai wearing garbage bags due to a lack of hospital gowns.
