As India fights the toughest battle against the second wave of Covid-19, it is time for us to join forces by following precautions to stop this virus from spreading. Apart from specific drugs and oxygen cylinders, plasma donation is often prescribed to treat those severely affected by the virus. But there is a countrywide shortage of plasma. Actress Amrita Prakash teams up with experts in not just creating awareness about plasma donation but also addressing the general misconceptions and concerns that are keeping many from coming forward as donors.

Amrita is working in tandem with organizations like Need Plasma and Pint Network, amongst others- to boost the public’s confidence in plasma donation. “I’m volunteering across multiple resource-aid networks and I cannot emphasize the desperate need in our country to educate and encourage people to step up as plasma donors. I’m putting in sleepless nights to volunteer for relief work and also run this campaign alongside, and would urge more people to participate in this critical cause,” says the actress, who has been a part of the entertainment industry for over two decades.
