Blood plasma contains 90% water and makes up 55% of total blood volume. It carries blood cells and proteins throughout the body to play an important role in the immune system. Plasma therapy involves injecting the blood plasma from a recovered person into one currently suffering from the same infectious disease to help the immune system fight it. The WHO has not certified its efficacy against COVID-19 but some positive results were seen in China and India is also using it to help fight the pandemic by having recovered patients donate plasma.
