New Delhi: After the Indian Council for Medical Research dropped convalescent plasma therapy from the Covid-19 treatment protocol, experts that TOI spoke to said that the advice was based on scientific evidence and would be duly followed. Belief in the therapy’s efficacy had led to huge demands for blood plasma in recent days.
“The study was conducted by various institutions and the results are in front of us. The use of plasma has been seen not to have an impact on the mortality or the progression of the disease,” said Dr Anant Mohan, head of pulmonary medicine at AIIMS. Other doctors told TOI that they would discontinue the therapeutic use of plasma except as a last resort. It was believed that the antibody-rich plasma from a recovered Covid patient, when injected into an ailing recipient, would aid the fight against the infection.
