European Blood Alliance: The Commit to Plasma Campaign Keeps Gathering Support
European Blood Alliance shared a post on LinkedIn:
“The Commit to Plasma campaign keeps gathering support! Recently 3 MEPs have endorsed the call for more public support to public plasma collection programmes! MEP Marta Temido, MEP Romana Jerković and MEP Catarina Martins have all added their names to the list of over 30 signatories which includes organisations representing professionals, patients, and donors. If you also believe that European and national authorities must play a more decisive role in improving plasma collection, add your name to the manifesto (link in first comment).
Among the actions needed, the Commit to Plasma manifesto calls for:
- All Member States to publish national plasma strategies by the end of 2026, with ambitious and clear commitments for national plasma collection goals
- Clearly earmarked resources to achieve these goals
- EU institutions to work towards equipping Europe with a European Plasma Coordination Plan by 2027
Eliminating shortages, addressing EU’s current dependency on imports, and, ultimately, meeting European patients’ needs requires comprehensive strategies that look at the whole plasma-to-medicines supply chain. Improving public plasma collection is an obvious first step and national governments have the responsibility to act!”
