A blood collection specialist holds a bag of convalescent plasma from a recovered coronavirus patient at the Central Seattle Donor Center of Bloodworks Northwest, in Seattle, Washington, US September 2, 2020.
Things got worse for the family when his elderly father was also infected, making Egypt's blistering hot summer months a hellish period of fretting over his recovery from a loud, dry cough and constant fevers. The idea is to harvest the plasma and inject it into other patients to give them an immunological boost that helps fight the same infection.
Since April he has spearheaded Egypt's campaign urging the country's more than 78,000 known recovered patients to donate their plasma. Serageldin said in Egypt eligible donors must be aged 18 to 60, weigh at least 50 kilogrammes and have produced a certain quality of antibodies. He teamed up with a web developer and medical doctors to design the easy-to-use Android app, which was released in June.With the minimal uptake online, he is planning to expand his app to make it a general blood donation service, meeting another pressing need in Egypt's strained healthcare sector.

Jump in COVID-19 cases in Britain is 'concerning' - HancockThe sharp rise in COVID-19 cases in Britain of 2,988 recorded on Sunday, the highest jump since May, was 'concerning', Health Secretary Matt Hancock said, although he added that the majority were younger people. Bla Bla Bla. He ain’t that concerned coz he ain’t making people get health checks to see who potentially has an opportunity underlying health condition. Look at people at hospitals there is not, nor in reas and less even are dying. A lot of positives are neither ill nor contagious. This is the goal of vaccination, to get a majority of healthy COVID19 carrier. Hancock-'...but social distancing remained [sic] the first line of defence.' Right. So how much are you being paid and what are you being paid to do? In 8 months, all you have come up with is social distancing. Testing is woeful. A vaccine years off. Tracing is pathetic.
