Sachin Tendulkar, itself, had tested COVID-19 positive the previous month and had to be admitted to a hospital in Mumbai.
In a video message posted on his official Instagram accounts, Sachin Tendulkar told that he would be donating plasma when it is allowable. The former player said in this context:
“Big thank you all of you. Last year I had inaugurated a plasma donation center, and their message was if plasma is given at the right time, patients can recover faster. I, too, when permissible, would be donating plasma; I have had a word with my doctor.”
Inviting citizens that they should come to forward and donate blood so that they can decrease problems related to COVID-19 significantly, Sachin Tendulkar added:
“All of those who have recovered from COVID-19, consult your doctor, and when permissible, please donate blood. With this, problems we are facing can be reduced. Please donate blood and help fellow Indians.”
