Is it a scam? Are they taking your "generous donations" and selling it for profit? Are they drinking it to honor their lord satan? Something doesn't sit right with me about it.

Yeah, they sell it to the hospitals to cover their costs.
Is that all they're doing is covering costs? Or are they making a profit? Because I can't sell my blood directly to the hospitals, I have to go through the blood donation orgs as a middleman.
Yes. They make a profit and take it in form of salary.
The average salary for American Red Cross employees is $70,435 per year
That's a very high salary that comes with vacation time and benefits.
You can give blood directly to a hospital if you don't want to deal with red cross or other blood orgs. Any local hospital in your area will be more than happy to take your donation.
They can pay.
To your point, at the very least they're throttling the open market to prevent competition from rising.
How about Plasma.......this scam has me wondering. People sell so much plasma...poor people usually....that they become anemic. Places like CSL plasma. What are they doing with THAT shit.........And why so much? I see waiting lines of crack heads waiting to make their $$$$. Whbat the fuck is happening to all that Plasma?
AS I UNDERSTAND IT they don't use the raw plasma as it is, they use parts of it to make different "medicines." That's my understanding or what they told me when i did that many years ago. Also as i understand it, the pharma corps pay THOUSANDS and all your ass gets is some piddly little thirty bucks or whatever
Sounds like a job for Project Veritas.
blood donation uses large gauge needles like 16 or 17 gauge. do that over and over in the same spot and you can get scarring and damage of the veins. hospitals pay red cross $2-300 per unit. hospitals use 41k units per day, or 15.7 million per year. so $3.925b rev.
They are selling it to make drugs with. Donations are like 20% used for people. There is a documentary I’ll have to find it
Interesting. Please let me know if you do find it.
Nonwhites (sickle cell) and faggots (every STD known to man) are allowed to give blood, too. Don’t do it.
The hospital treated my kids cord/cord blood like it was gold and had to ask me permission to keep it. Same with the placenta I think. Cord and cord blood for sure they asked to keep it.
Interesting. Wonder what would of happened if you said no?
They give it to you in a bag. We have our daughters cord.
My last child was in 91. They just whisked it off, no questions asked.
Ive also heard of hippie types planting a tree with the placenta
Holy shit, lol. I remember that thing being 10 lbs of purple veined alien plop. Burying it would be the preferred option I guess.
Well then you can say, thats your tree, kid. You fed it when it was growing at a very important time, and so on.
I got a tree from my youngest in the yard. Good times. Just trying to wrap my head around taking home a placenta.
thats another rabbit hole we/I need to dig into the umbilical cords blood. Is it cut off too early? If it were not cut off would the blood integrate into the baby? If the blood does go into babies what is the difference in a baby that kept the cord on until the blood integrated and ones where its cut right away? What effect does this have?
Doulas and Midwives know the benefit of letting the blood completely finish going into the baby and then cutting. It's a huge difference. Dig down that hole.
There are lots of pluripotent stem cells in that stuff. These cells can turn into nearly any other type of cell. In theory, even whole organs.
Yes it is a scam. No I dont have any info.
