Please know that they are aware of the problem and are actively working on resolving it as soon as possible. Their written statement says: "We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience during this time.

The New York Blood Center Is MovingThe New York Blood Center (NYBC) is relocating in fall 2024, resulting in a temporary pause in clinical cord blood unit distribution for approximately three weeks, starting September 20th. During this period, requests for confirmatory HLA typing, post-thaw QC, or shipments will not be processed, though unit reservations and access to previous testing reports remain available. Expect slightly longer turnaround times for QC results. To minimize disruption, consider early shipments for transplants scheduled during this downtime. NYBC remains committed to high-quality service and patient care throughout the transition.
