FDA Deflects Over Vaxxed Blood After Red Cross Says It’s No Good For Convalescent Plasma
The American Red Cross won’t use vaxxed blood for convalescent plasma COVID-19 treatments. We asked the FDA about it. The government dodged and deflected our questions.
“The Red Cross is currently only producing convalescent plasma from donations from individuals who are unvaccinated and have confirmed a previous symptomatic COVID-19 infection,” said Osment.
The admission contradicted the organization’s social media posts directed towards book author Jennifer Sey, who claimed blood donation establishments weren’t using vaccinated blood for CCP treatments, and asked “Why can’t they use blood of vaxxed who also had Covid? Real question for MDs. What’s wrong with vaxxed blood?”
Thus, by currently not accepting blood from vaccinated patients for CCP treatments in immunocompromised COVID-19 patients, Red Cross is contradicting the FDA guidance that permits it.
It remains unclear whether CCP has ever been created from a vaccinated person’s blood.
