WHO Recommends Against The Use Of Convalescent Plasma To Treat COVID-19

December 7 WHO has updated its living guideline on COVID-19 therapeutics to include convalescent plasma. For non-severe COVID-19 patients, WHO recommends against its use, while it should only be used within clinical trials for severe and critical COVID-19 patients. Convalescent plasma is a transfusion of blood plasma from someone who has recovered from COVID-19. Current evidence shows that convalescent-plasma does not improve survival or reduce the need for mechanical ventilation, while it has significant costs. An independent panel of experts, the guidelines development group, looked at pooled data from 16 randomized controlled trials, including 16 236 patients with non-severe, severe, and critical covid-19 infection. While the evidence that convalescent plasma has no benefit in non-severe patients was certain, it was less so in the case of severe and critically ill patients. So, randomized clinical trials for these subgroups should continue. Stay tuned for more updates... Read the full article

I am feeling a kind of way watching my blood leave my vein into a tube, then into a machine with a centrifuge, separating my plasma from the red blood cells in a bag, then sending it back into my arm. #convalescentplasma #covid19 #donateblood #detroit (at American Red Cross) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEcR8IojvKf/?igshid=1bx63gth5a0t5

Back in July I tested positive for Covid19 antibodies. I wrote with a bit of tongue-and-cheek about my experiences getting a Covid19 test in and outside Detroit. Three tests later, and a promise do my part to help someone else fight the coronavirus with my Covid19 rich antibodies, the day has come to donate my plasma with the American Red Cross. My timing is perfect considering the FDA is pushing convalescence plasma treatment is in the news. I have no clue how many Black men donate blood or plasma but I can say this was important to me personally because I’ve lost family, friends, neighbors and colleagues to Covid19 here in Detroit. I am scared has hell to be frank - needles and blood are two things that shake my nerves. I feel fortunate to be in a position to help so let the record show not only am I proud native Detroiter, but I have literally given my blood to make a difference for my community. #covid_19 #donateblood #donateplasma #convalescentplasma (at American Red Cross) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEcOmmFDoj7/?igshid=1wue338azk4vg
