The initial results of limited trials of plasma therapy treatment have been positive and encouraging in India. The therapy was conducted in limited hospitals across India.

Convalescent Plasma Therapy is an experimental procedure for COVID-19 patients. In this treatment, plasma from a COVID-19 patient who has recovered from the disease, is transfused into a coronavirus patient who is in critical condition.

The idea behind this therapy is that immunity can be transferred from a healthy person to a sick patient using convalescent plasma. For Plasma Therapy, doctors need plasma from COVID-19 patients who have already recovered.

Positive results of limited trials of plasma therapy treatment give a ray of hope to seriously ill coronavirus patients. ICMR has recently allowed states to start clinical trials.
