“Covid-19 convalescent plasma is safe.”
Dr. Stephen Hahn said about convalescent plasma and its emergency use authorization to treat #coronavirus during a press conference at the White House.
President Trump said a treatment involving blood plasma donated by recovered Covid-19 patients will be expanded under an emergency authorization by U.S. regulators on Sunday, saving “countless lives.”
“This is what I’ve been looking to do for a long time,” Trump said at a White House news conference announcing the decision, which he said will “dramatically expand access” to a “powerful therapy.”
He also promised further announcements “very shortly” involving vaccines.
After claiming without evidence that employees at the Food and Drug Administration were delaying coronavirus remedies for political reasons ahead of the November election, Trump said the emergency procedure speeded up the normal approval route by two or three years.
