Plasma donations could help corona patients

Anyone who has survived a corona infection could help other sick people in the future with a blood plasma donation. Studies are currently underway to determine to what extent the antibodies in the blood of those who have recovered can alleviate the course of the disease in acutely ill patients. “The aim is to shorten the duration of the illness and prevent damage such as lung failure,” explains the head of the cytapheresis department and responsible for the production of blood preparations at the blood donation service of the German Red Cross (DRK) at the Oldenburg, Hagen Baume site. The effectiveness of the procedure is currently being investigated in several studies. The head of the Institute for Transfusion Medicine at the Hanover Medical School, Rainer Blasczyk, reports that the treatment with antibodies from plasma shows particularly promising results if it is done as early as possible. A prerequisite for such a plasma donation is, in addition to general suitability, a sufficient antibody level in the blood, which is determined before the first donation.

Kiel state parliament asks experts about the corona pandemic

Today, numerous experts explain their positions on the corona pandemic to the state parliament in Kiel. During the all-day hearing, doctors and lawyers have their say, as well as an economist and a crisis researcher. This time the focus is on the so-called perspective plan of the state government. This step-by-step plan includes opening steps in the current lockdown, which are linked to certain infection numbers. On the one hand, the expert hearing is accompanied by falling numbers overall. On the other hand, the more contagious British virus variant is spreading increasingly. This currently affects the city of Flensburg in particular, which will tighten its already increased protective measures from Saturday. Such an expert hearing was held last November.
