Because of the corona virus, many American TV series had to stop producing, including several medical series such as "Grey's Anatomy". Because supplies such as respiratory masks, medical shirts and gloves are becoming scarce in many real hospitals, doctors and nursing staff are at risk of being exposed to the virus and becoming infected at work. But now the fictional hospitals are helping the real ones and donating material from their film sets.
The series "The Resident" (in English: "Atlanta Medical") donated sick shirts, breathing masks, gloves and other material to the Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta. The "The Good Doctor" series also plans to donate medical equipment to a hospital. The popular series of doctors "Grey's Anatomy" also announced that it would donate shirts and gloves to a hospital. The team from the associated fire service series "Station 19" will also donate their supplies of masks to the fire service in Ontario and Los Angeles.
