Giant sportswear brand Adidas donated 130 pairs of brand-new shoes to hospital nurses, physicians, and other staff in Mount Sinai hospital in Queens, New York.
The hardworking physicians and staffers at Mount Sinai Queens spend most of their time fighting the new coronavirus on their feet, and now they have brand-new pairs of Adidas sneakers to help them stay standing.
In an interview with Patch.com, Mount Sinai spokesperson Kathy Rubenstein said “Of course, the (emergency department) staff were super excited to get them. They spend most of their shift on their feet and wear sneakers every day. A new pair is both a great pick-me-up and super practical.”
It was reported that the donation was facilitated by Loic Villepontoux, who is friends with Mount Sinai Queens Chief of Emergency Medicine Ugo Ezenkwele.
