Very concerned about the impact on the blood supply, as I am an infusion recipient and know others who are, as well. A blanket response by the FDA, CDC and FDA/CBER do little to lessen the apprehension many feel regarding the status of a pure blood supply. This article highlights most of the concerns and is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to investigate. Excellent article.
Thank you for bringing this important issue so the conversation can get started. Not enough people are talking about it. I find it odd that the CDC and FDA thinks that because they say the blood supply is safe, we’re just going to say, “great thank goodness that’s been taken care of.” I don’t think so, homie don’t play that way. Why don’t you actually test the blood supply first before lying to us. Or is this the same thing we’ve heard before, oh don’t worry AIDES isn’t transmitted through blood transfusion, or my favorite coming from the people with and associated with the medical mafia, “well we need to get people inoculated to see what these vaxxines can do.” So your test your safe and effective statement without having a clue on wether they are or not. “Why would we test the blood supply, when we’ve got millions of lemmings will to test it for us.”
Exactly! Yet so many follow in stride... Hearing what they want to hear and taking their place in line. Mind boggling, quite frankly. Thanks for your comment!
This was a top concern I first raised with Boston Children's Hospital in May of 2021 for our baby who was heading into a complicated surgery. They could not make exceptions for our family and hospital policy would not allow a directed donor donation from my husband or I.
We decided to fly our son to All Children's Hospital in Florida for his needed surgery and they were able to accommodate for my directed donation of blood beforehand, which he ultimately received.
Thankfully I had the foresight ahead of time back when it was a new thought to raise questions and we had the luxury of time to be able to travel with our baby to a surgeon and hospital that could honor our request.
Baby Alexander is one of our family members and the hospital he was at practiced medical negligence to him and his parents. Such a sad situation.

We're in this together. Thanks Carole!
