Initially there was a misconception among people about plasma donation. At the beginning we started the campaign initially everyone was hesitant, but now it has become a movement. Total 761 people till date donated Plasma and saved 1300 plus lives in critical and emergency condition in Cyberabad. Our Madhapur Traffic Inspector Srinivas who was first infected with COVID 19, after recovering was the first person who came forward and donated plasma, and then later everyone joined in. Iam happy, now all donors who are different realms of life like businessmen, IT employees and people who have donated plasma have now become agents who have been actively promoting awareness on plasma donation. Before starting the plasma donation camp, we had first conducted blood donation camp, and we had collected 5,300 units, and donated the same to blood banks across the city. For this I would primarily want to thank SM Vijay Kumar, DCP Traffic Cyberabad, Praveen Reddy, Add. DCP Traffic, Inspector Hanumantha Rao, who had co-ordinated all the efforts. We have constituted a call centre for plasma helpline and helped out people who were in need of plasma. We are happy that we were able to help out people, whenever they needed us."
