Para respaldar los esfuerzos, todas las donaciones de sangre se someten a pruebas de anticuerpos como parte del panel de pruebas est\u00e1ndar de SDBB para calificar las donaciones de plasma convaleciente de COVID-19. Si una donaci\u00f3n da positivo, el plasma de la sangre donada puede usarse para ayudar a los pacientes del hospital a combatir el COVID-19.<\/p>\n
Hist\u00f3ricamente, el plasma convaleciente (PCC) se ha utilizado con \u00e9xito para tratar el SARS, el MERS y la gripe espa\u00f1ola, por lo que existe evidencia de que puede ayudar a las personas que padecen ciertas enfermedades infecciosas como la COVID-19.<\/p>\n
\u201cNecesitamos que cualquier persona que se haya recuperado de COVID-19 se comunique con nosotros para ver si es elegible para donar su plasma\u201d, dijo David Wellis, director ejecutivo de San Diego Blood Bank. \u201cLa necesidad ya ha aumentado en las \u00faltimas semanas y anticipamos a\u00fan m\u00e1s solicitudes de los hospitales a medida que nos acercamos al nuevo a\u00f1o\u201d.<\/p>\n
Se requieren citas para donar sangre y plasma convaleciente. Para ver si califica, visite www.sandiegobloodbank.org<\/a> o llame al 619-400-8251.<\/p>\n Al mirar desde el mirador derecho hacia el Parque Regional Mission Trails, se puede ver un gran mont\u00edculo de tierra en el parque. \u00bfQu\u00e9 es? Es un proyecto de construcci\u00f3n de la Autoridad del Agua del Condado de San Diego para mejorar una secci\u00f3n del sistema regional de suministro de agua. Tenga la seguridad de que una vez que se complete la construcci\u00f3n, la colina de tierra se restaurar\u00e1 y se revegetar\u00e1 con plantas nativas, muchas sembradas del propio parque.<\/p>\n Algunos senderos en el \u00e1rea noroeste del parque est\u00e1n cerrados durante el horario de construcci\u00f3n (de lunes a viernes de 7 am a 7 pm), con partes cerradas las 24 horas del d\u00eda, los 7 d\u00edas de la semana.<\/p>\n \u201cContin\u00fae evitando los senderos marcados como cerrados durante el horario laboral\u201d, dijo Aaron Trimm, gerente de construcci\u00f3n e ingeniero senior de Water Authority. \u201cLos veh\u00edculos y equipos de construcci\u00f3n pesados ahora utilizan regularmente los senderos cerrados durante la construcci\u00f3n, lo que hace que sea necesario cerrarlos para mantener seguros a los excursionistas y ciclistas\u201d.<\/p>\n La Water Authority ha creado un mapa interactivo que muestra la ubicaci\u00f3n de los senderos cerrados.

<\/a>Los esfuerzos de trabajo en una nueva estructura reguladora de flujo (FRS II) est\u00e1n comenzando a tomar forma con muchas de las secciones de pared instaladas. El FRS II ser\u00e1 un tanque de agua subterr\u00e1neo de concreto que almacenar\u00e1 un poco menos de cinco millones de galones de agua y se usar\u00e1 para equilibrar los flujos en el sistema de acueductos. FRS II ser\u00e1 el segundo tanque de agua subterr\u00e1neo en el parque; ambos funcionan para mover el agua de manera eficiente a trav\u00e9s de la regi\u00f3n. Los esfuerzos de construcci\u00f3n tambi\u00e9n incluyen una nueva instalaci\u00f3n de control de flujo, conexiones de tuber\u00eda norte y sur y la eliminaci\u00f3n de las chimeneas de ventilaci\u00f3n azul existentes.<\/p>\n
