Kate Garraway has opened up on how she considered donating her blood plasma to help her husband Derek Draper battle coronavirus.

A new clinical trial is underway to see if how effective it would be to treat Covid-19 patients with the blood plasma from people who have already recovered from the virus.

And it turns out Kate had already thought about doing this back in April after her hubby was admitted to hospital and induced into a coma to help fight off the disease.

During today’s episode of Good Morning Britain, the 53-year-old explained: ‘It was something that came to light that could be a useful tool, that I was asking if I could do back in April for Derek.

‘Then it was pre the first trials of its use for Covid, so I wasn’t allowed to because they didn’t know how safe it would be for either Derek or for anyone else involved in it.

‘But now it’s something that people are doing.’

After contracting coronavirus, plasma contains antibodies that are used to help fight infection, which could be crucial in the fight against the pandemic.
