BRADENTON, Fla. (WWSB) - Blake Medical Center provided its first Bamlanivimab antibody infusion treatment this evening to Ronald Bush, a 58-year-old Bradenton resident.
“I am so thankful that we discovered that Blake is providing this therapy. I feel pretty good now, but with my health conditions I wanted to be as proactive as I could to mitigate symptoms,” says Bush, who just received his COVID positive test results yesterday. “My wife’s mother read a recent article about Blake providing this treatment and we were pretty certain I’d be a good candidate. People need to know this therapy is here and ask their physician about getting a referral.”
