Does anyone else think trump is getting therapeutic plasma for COVID?

There is definitely a bruise on the top of his hand. They’re clearly going out of their way to hide the fact. Something is going on.

[Zoonart]

1. I do.

[USALiberal]

2. No!!!! nt

[Hekate]

3. Likely. I just posted regarding "convalescent serum" circa 1901

11. That is an interesting read. Thanks for sharing.

4. No, he's had injections there before. Blood thinners for his mini strokes is the smart money

[2naSalit]

7. That makes sense.

[Ms. Toad]

14. That's not where blood thinners are injected -

unless you're on IV heparin - which is an in-patient therapy with a continuous pump machine.

Been there, done that for thoracic outlet syndrome (DVT in the subclavian vein).

Current therapy:

1. subcutaneous injections (in the belly, generally)
2. IV pump as an in-hospital patient, on a 24/7 pump until stabilized (generally at least a week - in my case it took a month)
3. coumadin - which is a pill
4. tPa clot busting drugs - this has to happen very shortly after the stroke. Mine were administered directly to the clot via tubing in serted - the entry sites I'm most familiar with are the groin, or the crook of the arm (mine went in that way) - of the three, this is the one that is changed most/less directly applicable my experience to stroke treatment

So the bruise cannot be from IV blod thinners (he hasn't been hospitalized for over a week). It can be frrom bruises aggravated by blood thinners if he is on either subQ injections or coumadin.

15. Oooh! So this bandage at the bottom pic... what to make of it?

18. Can you opine on this? Sorry to press you into service but I'd value your opinion

Someone said:

Trump’s hand bruise resembles when a patient is on Coumadin or another blood thinner & gets a blood draw or IV.

Is that fair, or inaccurate?

5. There's only one person in govt whose health I care about these days -

Ruth Bader Ginsburg. May she stay healthy and strong.

[Raine]

6. NO, I don't. nt

[LeftInTX]

8. I do!!

He's always getting exposed and doesn't wear a mask.

[Mariana]

16. He's hardly ever been exposed.

Everyone who gets near him is tested constantly. All the stories about positive tests are people who don't have any direct contact with him, or who tested positive some time after they were near him.

[Nevilledog]

9. More likely...

One of the immigrant children Stephen Miller sacrifices every night got in a blow trying to escape.

But I'm not a witch doctor. And I don't play one on tv.

[tinrobot]

10. Maybe. Yes, somenting is going on.

I was thinking he could be injecting young people's blood. There's a few startups doing that in Silicon Valley.

[LiberalBrooke]

12. I think that also

[Thekaspervote]

13. Maybe he meant with his fav witch dr. And is having bleach injections

17. Similar thing in Jan 2019

WHITE HOUSE
Trump's bloody hand injury attracts armchair doctors
The White House told POLITICO that the president, who is due for his annual physical, suffered a minor injury.

Snip
President Donald Trump is often called thin-skinned. It’s usually not meant literally.

But the back of Trump’s right hand was covered with an adhesive bandage during a Thursday trip to McAllen, Texas, with blood visibly seeping through the dressing. His hand was similarly bandaged again on Monday as he departed for a trip to New Orleans.

19. Eraser

Probably tried to erase person, woman, man, camera, tv. What? You don't really think he could remember all those words do you ?????

[Blue_true]

20. There is a sizable effort going on with Convalescent Plasma to treat

COVID19 infected people. The federal government was late to the party, but it is believed to have pledged $50 million. Mike Bloomberg’s charity organization was one of the first funders several months ago.

It may be possible that Trump demanded something in return for government money.

Anything is possible with that fool.
