Got an invitation I couldn't refuse today, seems I am eligible to donate blood again. Which is a good thing, especially since a blood donation could help someone who might have difficulties fighting off this virus of note. You see, there are people who have succeeded in overcoming Covid, and their blood contains essential antibodies that some seem to have difficulties coming up with, and those persons are the ones in dire strates when it comes to succeeding once the virus has begun its attacks. If, though, one who has won this battle were to donate a pint of blood containing their antibodies, the person in need just may have a fighting chance. Which is where I come in--you see, you can't expect that successful covid patient to just give blood without having someone like myself provide a bit of healthy blood to replace the covid resistant sample with. Covid antibody blood saves the antibody poor individual, and good normal blood replaces it in the covid antibody producer's body.
Should work. All we need is for our Docs to figure this out and move on it, and for ample blood to be donated to cover the added needs that will be generated.
If everybody does their part--fewer covid deaths will occur.
A good thing, no?
And, no, this doesn't work in all cases--does work in some. For the person dying from the infection, it is well worth a try.
