The Isabella Geriatric Center is a nursing home in Manhattan, and has been hit hard by the novel coronavirus COVID-19.
According to Business Insider, the facility listed an official tally of 13 deaths as of Friday.
But now, it has had to use a refrigerator truck to temporarily store bodies after it recorded 98 deaths in a "horrifying" outbreak.
A spokesperson for the care home has said that it has been struggling with staff shortages and a lack of personal protective equipment (PPE) for employees.
The spokesman added the facility has since had "more access to testing."
