"Went to Mumbai to donate plasma but didn't have enough antibodies for donation," wrote Milind Soman
Actor-model Milind Soman, who was diagnosed with COVID-19 in March, wrote in an Instagram post that he attempted but was unable to donate plasma. Milind Soman, who is quarantined somewhere in the hills, made a quick trip to Mumbai recently to donate plasma but he was not eligible because of insufficient antibodies. After his return from Mumbai, Milind Soman checked into Instagram and wrote: "Back to the jungle! Went to Mumbai to donate plasma but didn't have enough antibodies for donation. Even though plasma therapy is not proven effective 100%, there are opinions that it might help, so I guess we must do whatever we can." In his note, Milind also shared his understanding of how antibodies matter when it comes to plasma donation: "Low antibody count generally means I had mild symptoms and that I have enough to fight another infection but not enough that I can help other people. Felt a bit sad." Read Milind Soman's full post here:More Related News
