Before seriously ill Covid-19 patients can get an experimental treatment called convalescent plasma therapy, their families have to do just one thing: find the donors.
Even while supporting very ill loved ones, family members search for potential donors and help them navigate donating at a blood bank. The hope is that antibody-rich plasma from a recovered Covid-19 patient, when transfused into a seriously ill patient, will help fight the new coronavirus that scientists have barely begun to understand.

The amount of people who could donate would be significantly larger if we had an antibody test. I couldn’t be tested, state only able to test first responders.
That sounds like a “Socialist” fucking idea. What about selling that shit bro? RealWorldShit

More Than 40 Grocery Workers Have Died From COVID-19At least 41 grocery workers have died from the coronavirus, and another 1,500 across the U.S. have tested positive CapehartJ Went to a market in Maryland last week. Every worker donned gloves and hospital type face-shields...except the cashiers. As I checked my groceries at self serve, a cashier about 20 ft from me sneezed. No one said a word. I did. He told me that managers did not protect cashiers... But we will never know who those people are or where they work. Oh well. Sad, but Not so many when you analyze the number of people who work in that industry. You should show the % that that number mean in the industry, and not only do a cheap sale job. BTW, they are people who died in every business thank to the chinese government and the WHO.

EXCLUSIVE: AstraZeneca’s Calquence Shows Early Promise For COVID-19 PatientsBritish drug giant AstraZeneca is rushing forward a big clinical trial for its blood cancer drug Calquence because it has shown early promising results in later-stage COVID-19 patients—those in intensive care units and on ventilators Best of luck and let’s hope for best they're probably going to get attacked too, generally speaking. So many different things show promise? Why not just focus on better diets. They have scientific research on those plants/herbs/mushrooms. That's what's used to inspire the drugs. They should be growing more. I am not against statements like this. I AM against over stating the use of drugs being tested. We had people lose their damn minds over chloroquine and I do NOT want to see that happen with every drug we try. Responsible reporting is essential at any time but especially now.
