The Pandemic episode was removed from the New Amsterdam TV drama, Independent reported.
The episode, which was originally titled Pandemic before being renamed Our Doors Are Always Open, saw doctors battling a deadly flu pandemic in New York City.
The medical drama was shot before the pandemic.
“We shot a fictional pandemic episode right before a real pandemic hit,” series creator David Schulner wrote in an essay for Deadline. “People are dying in real life. Do we really want to watch fake people die too? … The world needs a lot less fiction right now, and a lot more facts.”
