A member asked:
Im planning to donate my plasma in a plasma donation center. but apparently they said if i have g6pd, i cannot donate my plasma. can any doctor explain to me? thank you so much?

Per my opinion you can donate your plasma as convalescent plasma for Covid-19 treatment but the guidelines of American Red Cross prohibit blood donation from G6PD deficiency so the center will not accept you when you were asked about medical history. They do not differentiate plasma from blood donation, I assume.
