During an interview with NPR, Hanks confirmed he was helping scientists out. After recovering from the coronavirus, he said he sought ways to help out. "A lot of the question is what now, you know? What do we do now? Is there something we can do? And, in fact, we just found out that we do carry the antibodies," Hanks said on Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!, reports Entertainment Tonight. "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."
