Very very interesting info!!
But some errors; first answer says wait 2 weeks, but second answer says within 6 months.
1)
Q: Are individuals who received a COVID-19 vaccine eligible to give blood, platelets and plasma?
...
If you do not know the name of the vaccine manufacturer, we request you wait two weeks to donate after vaccination, out of precaution.
2)
Q: Are individuals who received a COVID-19 vaccine eligible to give COVID-19 convalescent plasma?
A: The FDA allows people who have received a COVID-19 vaccine to donate dedicated COVID-19 convalescent plasma within six months of their infection of the virus, based on data that antibodies from natural infection can decline after six months however, the Red Cross has discontinued our convalescent plasma collection program.
Other problems:
1) Supply problem, because they based demand on the original virus’ effect on hospitalizations?
2) efficacy; banked convalescent plasma was from folks that recovered from the original virus, whereas now there’s a variant virus going around, which have different spikes?
Question:
Is the convalescent plasma effective against India/Delta variant?
I could spend pages picking it apart. Very problematic
