After going public with their diagnosis and keeping the world updated on their condition while in isolation in Australia, the Hanks made a “full recovery” and were allowed to return to their home in Los Angeles.
Now Hanks has revealed that they have been approached by medical researchers developing a vaccine with a request for their blood.
Hanks joked that if he and his wife’s blood proves to be useful in the fight against coronavirus, then he will be proud of his role in the creation of a ‘Hank-ccine‘.
DailyMail report: On the public radio game show he said: ‘We just found out that we do carry the antibodies
‘We have not only been approached; we have said, do you want our blood? Can we give plasma? And, in fact, we will be giving it now to the places that hope to work on what I would like to call the Hank-ccine.’
The Forrest Gump actor previously revealed that his producer-and-actress wife Rita suffered much worse coronavirus symptoms than he did and he was concerned for her health.
He said: ‘Rita went through a tougher time than I did. She had a much-higher fever and she had some other symptoms.
‘She lost her sense of taste and smell. She got absolutely no joy from food for a better part of three weeks. She was so nauseous, she had to crawl on the floor from the bed to the facilities. It lasted a while.’
Now that Tom and Rita are back on their feet, their using their energy to advocate for mail-in voting.
‘We as Americans and as voters should be able to request the options that work for us,’ Wilson said. ‘We don’t want to have to risk our health or our vote. So to make that easy, mail-in ballot, absentee ballot, I think that’s a really great compromise.‘

His blood is like a box of chocolates, right?
People are stupid thanks to the efforts of a tiny tiny few who have massive power over their thinking information and views.
Its odd for hanks to give blood, usually he takes it from children
They got caught on the A-train (that’s A for Adrenochrome)… and now they’re gonna push the poison to the masses. Talk about not learning your lesson. This will not end well for them.
Because you gota make the vaccine trendy to sell it to the masses…..
Snake oil salesmen…..
Whyyy? Because it’s teeming with adrenochrome…???
It’s not going to help all if those tens of thousands of old frail sick terrified people snatched from their homes ,their holiday cruise liners, their care facilities and terrified and alone isolated into a horrifying alien environment and attended by creatures resembling some sort of nightmare creation from star trek without ever being allowed to say goodbye to your husband or wife children grandchildren or even attending to your estate .Just monstrous And all compkwty just to satisfy their statistics .
