A task force appointed by the government
removed plasma therapy from the treatment protocol for adult covid 19 patients.
The use of convalescent plasma therapy has been removed even as an off label
treatment in the revised clinical guidelines for the treatment of adult covid
19 patients.
In consultation with the Indian Council
of Medical Research and AIIMS New Delhi and among others the covid 19 treatment
protocol is prepared. During the early months of the covid 19 pandemic plasma
therapy was used as a part of covid 19 treatment which was thought to be
effective. The research was carried out on this and it is now proven that
plasma therapy is not effective in treating patients suffering from covid 19.
