FILE PHOTO: An apheresis machine separates and collects convalescent plasma from the whole blood of a recovered coronavirus patient at the Central Seattle Donor Center of Bloodworks Northwest during the outbreak in Seattle, Washington, U.S. April 17, 2020. The plasma from recovered patients will be used in an experimental treatment study for current coronavirus patients.
A day before the FDA’s announcement, Trump tagged the agency’s Commissioner Stephen Hahn in a tweet and said, “The deep state, or whoever, over at the FDA is making it very difficult for drug companies to get people in order to test the vaccines and therapeutics.” “Obviously, they are hoping to delay the answer until after November 3rd. Must focus on speed, and saving lives!”
The FDA, which appeared to rush with an announcement on Sunday, said early evidence suggests blood plasma can decrease mortality and improve the health of patients when administered in the first three days of their hospitalization.
Fix your headline: Under pressure from trump, the FDA...the as of yet fully researched...
Boycott blood donation!
The key question is where you can get enough blood? It is not like you can produce it massively in a factory.
Why is the FDA so behind on this?

It’s a matter of liability. Hospitals were already doing it. Blood banks already “collecting”. Not a matter if it’s dangerous. This will not make it magically more available. It might make testing more available?

No, it approved Emergency Use. Very few will get it. Also, there are no significant studies to prove it helps. The Netherlands stopped their trial on CP due to something they found. Trump just dives in head first into a wading pool.
I thought they were using this already. Confused.
the FDA found that it's no worse than a placebo, and its use for the China virus treatment may have advantages outweighing its side effects. that's what I call a cure for the China virus!!! VOTE QUIMBY!
PRESIDENT TRUMP CURES COVID-19 ! GOD BLESS YOU MR PRESIDENT!!
Chicken noodle soup, a shot of whiskey, a good nights sleep and a cup of tea in the morning...we are talking about the Flu right?
Where are they getting this plasma, the kids in cages?
35% or better recovery rates this will save many people.
The way these COVID fans that yearn masks and being locked in their homes will be satisfied is when they are given a rushed-to-market, unproven vaccine that enriches their lord and savior Fauci.
This is not a cure or a treatment that everyone who contracts Covid can benefit from.
This is not a historical way to treat covid. It’s been around since the first days
On the night before the Convention, He strong arms the FDA to approve “emergency use auth” for convalescent plasma. But days ago the FDA refused to approve it as there was not enough data! TRuMP again messes w/ science (the FDA) and human lives, for his own gain. GROSS!!
Shame on the fda
