Jhajjar, May 12, 2020: Tablighi Jamaat, which drew flak for being the super spreader of the Covid-19 until few days back, is again in news for something exactly contrarian. Its members are volunteering in large numbers for the plasma donation after recovering from the disease, Yahoo reported.
Arshid Ahmed from Jhajjar in Haryana, who was discharged from a Delhi hospital few days back has donated his plasma twice and says, will do it ten times of required. Plasma therapy comprises treating a patient with the plasma of a recovered patient who has developed antibody against the disease.
