NBC Universal, Inc.

A hospitalized Homestead police officer currently battling the coronavirus is in need of a plasma donation.

The officer’s family is asking the public for help so they can bring him home. Sunday marked his son’s 12th birthday.

Officers showed their support for 12-year-old Jacob Anderson with a parade. Jacob’s father, Homestead K-9 Officer Doug Anderson, has been in a West Kendall hospital for nine days now.

His family is asking for people who have recovered from the virus, and are B positive, to donate.

Anderson’s family is working with One Blood for donations, but hospitals across Miami-Dade and Broward need donations as well. They say one plasma donation can possibly help more than one patient
