(L to R): Patrice Piretti, Brian Strauss, Robert McCord
Fox 5 Good Day New York’s recent segment highlighted the lifesaving power of convalescent plasma donation for critical COVID-19 patients. Brian Strauss was hospitalized with coronavirus and received lifesaving convalescent plasma. He was grateful for the opportunity to meet and thank his plasma donors Robert McCord and Patrice Piretti, RN, at our Center East location.
“I got this great phone call from someone from the blood center saying that the person who received my plasma wanted to thank me,” Patrice said. “The greatest spiritual gift for me is being able to help someone else.”
