The Shameful Act of Selling Plasma in Pakistan

The spread of Coronavirus has holistically ruined Pakistan in various ways; typically, morally affected the people. The deaths and widespread of coronavirus have made Plasma Therapy as an essential thought of every patient whatsoever. The social media is stormed by claims that people have started selling it now.

Can’t believe that people have made business out of plasma-with-antibodies-against #COVID19 in Pakistan 🇵🇰 ... come on guys let’s be human. 🤦‍♂️
Disaster is no new phenomenon in such heartless societies. #coronavirus

Convalescent Plasma Therapy

Predominantly, Dr Tahir Shamsi introduced the idea of Convalescent Plasma Therapy in Pakistan. The plasma of a recovered patient is injected into a coronavirus patient. The injected plasma creates the antibodies, helping the patient develop a passive immunity.

The fight against Coronavirus in Pakistan:👇

Hydroxychloroquine: UNAVAILABLE
Actrema injection: UNAVAILABLE (in black market price over Rs. 1 million for a single person's course)
Ivermectin: UNAVAILABLE
Azithromycin: UNAVAILABLE
Blood Plasma: Rs. 500,000 per bag, if you are

The doctor has deemed to inform us that this technique can save precious lives as per the use of it in China. A vaccine works on the basis of creating guidance for the immune system to combat pathogens. However, the creation of these Antibodies is essential to fight any virus other than COVID-19 itself.

Convalescent Plasma has become a business for the people of Pakistan. The therapy is somehow useful but certainly, the people have made it worse for everyone. selling something rather than trying to save a life. These bottles of the product are sold at an elevated price not everyone can afford.

The humanity in Pakistan is at the lowest, the esteemed thoughts of people have just become trash. Although, society is piloted by the religious teachings. Every religion prefers humanity over itself; However, these inhumane people have gone so low worshipping money that they prefer money over the lives of people.

I am staggered to get to know that some Corona recovered patients in Pakistan especially Islamabad & Peshawar are selling their blood plasma for lacs and even up to 1 million.I wonder how can someone even think of this after experiencing this kind of a death-dealing infection. pic.twitter.com/RhvW8xNb8d
