Announcing the "truly historic breakthrough" treatment had been given emergency authorisation from the US drug regulator, Mr Trump said it had been "proven to reduce mortality by 35 per cent.""The evidence is limited, because it’s still early days," said Professor Michael Good, chair of a blood-plasma working group advising the federal government.
The therapy involves taking blood from patients who have recovered from COVID-19. Scientists spin out red blood cells, leaving behind only straw-yellow antibody-rich plasma.That plasma is then injected into a sick patient where, hopefully, the antibodies stop the virus. the treatment emergency use authorisation on Monday, said there was evidence the treatment "may be effective" and that the benefits outweighed the risks.
Other studies have been done in mice and hamsters. Generally, results in animals do not translate to results in humans.Bizarrely, more than 70,000 patients in America have been treated with the therapy, yet none were part of a published, randomised controlled trial.

liammannix It obviously does work...the same way same as hydroxy works. They either want people to die or prefer that they die rather than fix them. Big pharma doesnt like cures. No money in cures. Unless its a Bill Gates vaccine.
liammannix No strong evidence that the has any journalistic integrity remaining.
liammannix media have a narrative to push
liammannix No strong evidence a cure for the common cold can be found in 1 year. Covid-19, another corona virus, though.
liammannix You lost me at ‘experts’.
liammannix Tell somebody who cares. Karma for Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan
liammannix Even if it does work, the radical left would rather see people die than admit they were wrong.
liammannix Orangeman bad ... we get it. FFS

liammannix Whether it works or not is irrelevant to trump. He’ll say anything that pumps the stock market and wins him an election.
liammannix This is the same playbook Morrison used last week regarding a “deal” for a vaccine. Pretty obvious that there is close collaboration between the two. Trump even used “snap back” last week, albeit in a different context. Crosby Textor? Putin? Who knows.
liammannix Shocking.
liammannix Yes it works.
liammannix really? ok.
liammannix No strong evidence the media isn’t ridiculously biased: experts
liammannix When I see msm attacking the President as if they don't mind people dying, I know he must be right. Btw, if u get covid19 and dont want to receive the plasma treatment, or use the even cheaper HCQ+Azithromysin+Zinc, you are free to do so. Don't obstruct those who want to try.
liammannix A pandemic with a 0.25% mortality rate, one tenth of the Spanish flu, even disregarding the recent admissions that every death in aged care post-covid is being counted as OF covid.
liammannix If Trump says it's raining outside,does anybody go out to check?
liammannix If Joe Biden announced it, it would be a miracle drug
liammannix If Trump supports it, stay away folks. Disinfectant injections, HCQ, oleandrin, now this. His inner moron is speaking again.
