Specialists advise that pregnant and chronic women do not donate plasma

As explained by the British Hospital hematologist Pablo Muxi, pregnant women “can generate antibodies against the HLA system,” which is the compatibility system that “we have regardless of blood group.” “This can cause those antibodies produced by pregnant women to affect the plasma recipient, so they are not ideal donors.”

He also assured that donors are asked to have “suffered from Covid because they are the antibodies that circulate in our environment, even though the vaccine generates antibodies, there are no studies that tell us that the plasma of a vaccinated person has effects on a patient. in which we want to avoid aggravation “

He also assured that the treatment is more effective when the donated plasma is from the same region where the patient is from.

For some time now, specialists have been warning about blood shortages and calling people who suffered from Coronavirus to donate. At the end of April, they assured that about 450 donors were needed per day to normalize the functioning of the health system.
