Convalescent Plasma

[George K]

Trump was asked whether he'd donate his plasma.

He responded that no one has asked him that question, but he'd be happy to do so.

So, if you knew (and you probably wouldn't) that you were getting Trump's plasma, would you accept?

I’ve coughed up a stranger’s blood and mucus.

Of course I’d take his antibodies.

[taiwan_girl]

I definitely would.

Only if they assure me I won't start tweeting.

No problemo.

Yeah, that's a reasonable yellow flag.

More info about this, please?

And yes to the question, as long as there's a way to de-orange my skin, if necessary.

Well if you take lungs from another person you get their contents too. A macabre joke among transplant patients is “remember, those first few coughs aren’t yours”.
