"Of all the things I’ve witnessed as a doctor, in all my career, this is one of the most moving things. To see someone actually be so generous, so someone’s suffering becomes someone else’s treatment."

Dr. George Yu is a pulmonologist and sleep specialist. In this podcast he talks to Ashwin about his experience with two COVID-19 patients; trying to save one using a plasma donation from the other. He describes an effort that included him reaching out to every relevant contact in his network and building the Conquer COVID Together initiative. Their aim is to collect convalescent plasma to help fight COVID-19 in its early stages. Dr. Yu is keen to point out that conquering COVID-19 is only possible as a collective effort. He says, “We just need to spread the word that we can do it together.”
