The trial for use of convalescent blood plasma that is rich in COVID antibodies for severely ill hospitalized patients has been halted by the study group because it has not demonstrated effecitve/ helpful.

However, they are continuing the trial arm for use of the blood plasma in moderately ill COVID patients to make a determination for effectiveness.

Stay well. Wear your masks!

peace,
