“The body of a COVID-19 patient creates antibodies to fight off the virus. These antibodies in the blood of a recovered patient could be used to boost the immunity of the newly infected people,” Dr Tahir Shamsi, the head of National Institute of Blood Diseases
.... this technique is called “passive immunisation” which was introduced in 1890, he added. This technique is used when there is a high risk of infection and insufficient time for the body to develop its own immune response, or to reduce the symptoms of ongoing or immunosuppressive diseases. ....
Indeed this is an old technique and proven for many diseases.
But the whole world is searching for a solution to fight coronavirus and is racing against time. Thousands of people are already dead and hundreds of thousands infected. How come no one else in the world is talking about it, or this man, like many others who claim to produce electricity from water, is selling smoke.
(I hope by now blood specialists have learned when a patient produces false platelets count report that they are fake.)
