Title TESTING FOR JAY.
Scope and content The plight of 24 year old Jay Feinberg from West Orange, New Jersey, has caught the imagination of the Israeli public. Three thousand people, in four centers set up across the country, gave samples of their blood to see if it was compatible to Feinberg. Feinberg is suffering from Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and needs to find a suitable donor for a bone marrow transplant to save his life. After such publicity on both television, radio and the press, today was dedicated to bringing as many volunteers as possible to the various centers to try and find a tissue match. There is no laboratory in Israel that has the capacity to test such a vast amount of blood in such a short period, as the blood has to be typed with twenty-four hours. the samples were immediately flown to Washington's American Red Cross Laboratory the save evening by EI Al with the hope that among the samples one person will be able to give Jay Feinberg the gift of life. Unfortunately the antigens in Feinbergs blood are of a rare type and even his own two brothers or parents are not suitable to donate bone Barrow. *** Local Caption *** The picture shows Israeli 0lympic medalist Yael Arad giving a blood sample in Jerusalem while Jay Feinberg and his mother Arlene look on.
