Plasma donation
Physicians are agreed that all the patients, who have recovered from the deadly disease Covid-19, to donate plasma to save the lives of other victims. Plasma, a yellowish liquid component of blood, carries the blood cells in whole blood in suspension. People who have fully recovered from COVID-19 have antibodies in their plasma that can attack the virus. This convalescent plasma is being evaluated as treatment for patients with serious or immediately life-threatening COVID-19 infections, or those judged by a healthcare provider to be at high risk of progression to severe or life-threatening disease. A Covid-19 recovered patient can give plasma every month instead of a regular three or four-month interval that is usually required for normal blood donation. Presence of an effective antibody in plasma is a must and after checking the antibody, anyone can donate plasma. You may qualify to donate plasma for coronavirus patients if you meet specific convalescent plasma and fulfill regular blood donation reqirements. You are at least 17 years old and weight 110 lbs. Additional weight requirements apply for donors age 18 or younger. If you’re fully recovered from a new coronavirus infection and meet the above criteria, please donate YOUR plasma and save people’s life. Plasma donation process is also starting in my country Bangladesh. Many Corona survived people want to donate their plasma. In my next article, i will write about our condition. Please stay safe,Try to help at least 2 people daily if you can.

Thank you Rubaya. Many People think that donating plasma may hamper their health,but it has no side effect. It is a great opportunity to save people.

You are welcome dear. It is good to save life by donating blood. Many people see it as bad thing until they need it one day. Thanks.
It is a great article. Because you wrote an important points which is plasma therapy. It is very beneficial for covid- 19 affected people. Nowadays it is used is many countries.
Now it is also used in our country Bangladesh, but it is important to reach towards corona recovery people and try to collect their plasma as soon as possible.
I hope this bring some changes on current situation! Bangladesh is in a critical position! The rate of people affecting,do you think plasma will be available in this rate?
But it is fact of regret that the number of corona recovery rate is very low in our country and the facilities of plasma donation is still not available in all medical. But i am glad that at least it has started.
This is good. Convalescent stage has loads of dead covid19 which would be remembered by the T cells.
Yes, it is great. Now need to inspire people to donate their plasma. Hope it will save many people life.
Helpful article. Recently some students of our country have come forward to donate plasma. They are also encouraging others. It will improve the treatment and we can hope something better and can lessen our tension.
At first all of our hospital and clinic have the opportunity of donating plasma and government should declared that there is no side effect in plasma donation then people overcome their fear and deal interest to donate plasma.
time taken for plasma donation should be more than the whole blood donation, but can donate more frequent than 3 month period of full blood donation.
You have brought a good article dear!i hope ours people become enthusiastic for plasma donation
At first government need to take step immediately. They have to declared it officially, then people will believe and inspire to donate their plasma.
This is under trial. It is not confirmed yet. But people over here started business with this plasma. And selling it for 8-10k
But i listened that several people in our country are getting well by taking plasma of corona recovery person.
one more important thing about plasma tranfusion.Donar should be recovered from it fully and the repeated test RT-PCR should be negative and donar criteria should be 6 to 12 weeks following the day of recovery.
Okay, i did not know as much. You must know better than me. I only want that if some people can save their life by taking plasma.
This is still under clinical trial and it is not a confirmed treatment of covid-19 But some case showed wonderful recovery by using this plasma.
I also heard that the clinical trial is still going on. But we can keep our hope because we are seeing that some people were benefited by this.
Plasma donation is a great milestone for medical science as it is now only way to reduce the death percent for covid patient but we must maintain the protocol of plasma donation fully.
And i heard that it is being clinical trial situation in our country, i Don't know much about this but i heard some cases of plasma donation.
If thouroughly done it then dont get its effective value actually. We also care of it.
Plasma Transfusion: Don't do test on yourself unless you are symptomatic.. Have trust oh You Allah then Wait
On your finishing quota day (7th), do test for RTPCR and then go for quarantine 14 days.Thanks
Dont do any test in quarantine unless you are symptomatic After quarantine, have time with your family and dear and near one..
Plasma donation is a great milestone for medical science as it is now only way to reduce the death percent for covid patient but we must maintain the protocol of plasma donation fully.
