Vanessa Fry, research director of the Idaho Policy Institute, has been mentioned in several local articles pertaining to plasma donation. In the articles “Shining a light: A plasma donor, another mask maker and a rock painting family,” and “American Red Cross asking for convalescent plasma donations,” Fry talks about her motivation for donating plasma after recovering from COVID-19.
“”To be able to give back after that is really good because I know so many people are suffering from it,” said Fry. “So, having the opportunity to give them a chance to get healthy quicker feels really good and it feels like it’s part of my responsibility to be able to do that.”
