The global pandemic had an adverse effect on the nation’s blood supply, just as it negatively impacted every other aspect of our society. The nation’s blood supply is critical to the health, safety, and well-being of everyone. Be it a blood transfusion or a catastrophic injury, having a secure and steady blood supply is an extremely important lifesaving mechanism to have in place. 

Covid and Donor Plasma 

Medical experts discuss the risk and benefits of using donor plasma from Covid -19 survivors—a treatment known as convalescent plasma therapy—to help the very ill recover. 

Calling all Covid-19 survivors: Health experts believe that if you donate–your blood might help save the lives of people infected with the coronavirus. 

If you’ve tested positive for Covid-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, and you’ve now recovered and are symptom-free, you may be able to help others by donating plasma. This is the liquid part of your blood that contains antibodies that contribute to your immune response. https://www.thehealthy.com/infectious-disease/coronavirus-convalescent-plasma-therapy/
