Urologist from Kiev

Alexander Bass arrived in the USA 25 years ago and worked for more than 20 years at the Coney Island Hospital, which is called "the most Russian hospital in New York." He assisted surgeons during urological operations.

By education, Alexander was a urologist, graduated from the A. A. Bogomolets National Medical University.

The Ukrainian contracted the virus at the end of March. This happened at work in a hospital. In early April, he became significantly worse - Alexander had to be put into a medical coma and connected to a ventilator. But this did not help; on April 10 he died. “Sasha didn’t die, Sasha died. He didn’t chicken out, didn’t run away, he’s a dad you should be proud of. Brave, didn’t cry, didn’t complain,” a friend described the deceased with these words.

“He was a source of strength to all who knew him and, as a physician assistant, dedicated his life to helping others. He was a wonderful husband, father and friend to everyone he met,” wrote Jessica Getz, who organized the fundraiser on behalf of the victim’s wife.

Alexander Boss was buried in a Jewish cemetery on the island of Staten Island. The funeral video shows that next to the grave of the Boss there are many other fresh graves.

The doctor is survived by two children - daughter Margaret and son Allan, and wife Svetlana. You can help Alexander’s family through the website page GoFundMe.
