If you read the article there trashing the idea...No real studies...
A top FDA official who is overseeing COVID vaccine trials had vowed to resign if the Trump administration approves a vaccine before it is shown to be safe and effective. Peter Marks, director of the FDAs Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, made his promise during a conference call earlier in the month with pharmaceutical executives, government officials and others, Reuters reported Friday.
I think this administration has put more pressure on the Food and Drug Administration than I can remember ever happening in the past, Schaffner said.
Everybody is just a little bit nervous, he said.

Plasma treatment is transfusion of blood plasma from recovered patients.

Its giving COVID victims blood plasma donated by people who have recovered from COVID. The idea is that recovered patients have antibodies in their blood plasma that can help a patients immune system fight the infection.

With, I hope, effective screening for viruses.

That's where they strap you to a wall in a centrifuge and spin you around until you're plasma.
Or something similar to that.

Boy I know so little about this arena that i can’t even put my one cent in :)
My cousin has Cooley’s Anemia. She’s maybe 43 now.
Blood transfusion every 2 weeks and a pump that clean out her blood every night.
Treatments JUST came out when she was born.
They used to live until maybe early teens.
Medicine, when done right and for the right reasons, is wonderful. And YES, I believe profit is one of those right reasons...as long as it’s on the up and up.
I know. Stop laughing :)

This isn’t something new in the treatment arena... they have been using it for critical patients for sometime now. What’s different?

Whats plasma treatment?It is a simple adaptation of the well-known and well-understood plasma arc cutting technology. It instantly kills all virus particles it touches.

Plasma flare. If you're in one you don't have to worry about CoVid.

RESIGN NOW!
And good riddance when he resigns.
