Plasma donation: what to expect?

[@kathybaxter7928]

Saving a life is what it's all about. Nothing else matters. To that child with cancer, or that person suffering a rare disease, Thank you plasma donors! Stop the hate on the no glove wearing.

I'm a plasma and blood donor too! I love to do this, It Is also good to have some rest, by watching TV or read a book. Plus you have car parking and breakfast free. In Italy we had different laws: we can donate plasma just every 14 days. And blood, 4 times a year for men and 2 times a year for women.

[@williamprice4150]

I agree. I've never donated but I plan too

[@lisalopez9639]

This is very informational and detailed. However, I know it’s just a informational video, but I am with everybody else on the, why is nobody wearing any gloves? Even if it is just an informational video.

[@celiaspiropoulos7596]

EXACTLY!

[@celiaspiropoulos7596]

Tell them when you go there!

[@lenalou56]

The video was done before the cv19 epidemic 😷

[@richardweiler3966]

@@lenalou56 the vitals technicians and the phlebotomists all wore gloves even before Covid. And also face shields too. But not masks. I imagine that because this is just a promo video, they didn't bother to cover up.

Is there an age requirement? I used to be on a list for blood marrow donation, but they removed me when I turned 60. Would I be too old to donate plasma?

[@debraprince4511]

Doesn't say if there is an age limit. Or did I miss that?

1:34 - when they show how the device/donation works

[@wanwanscott5022]

What if they don’t want to schedule another appointment 😭serious question

[@suzannegiant5453]

Where are the gloves?

[@aprilroberts1243]

It on your 8th visit you get $100 today my pulse is too high so if I go tomorrow will I get my hundred dollars it's not the month is not over

[@bobtee1473]

if your deferred at exactly four months you know they threw your sample a way probably because the staff prefers a a different demographic. (true for all plasma centers)

[@tstjohn777]

All the complainers on the no gloves. Lol everyone lives in fear, stay home.

[@frutloop123]

They dude didn't have gloves on...wth

[@saucechannel4893]

Wow NO GLOVES GODDAMN

[@mycatisromeo]

Doctors make a fortune and the life sustaining plasma they need pays shit. What an imbalance. It should pay $200 a donation.

[@richardweiler3966]

Why stop at $200. How about $500? Or even $1,000. Why should these private companies be allowed to cover their costs and even earn a profit? It's so evil!

[@officermeyer]

I completely agree. The fricken make over 1000 per bottle of plasma so what the actual hell?! This is beyond high way robbery

[@catmomlavender3036]

Exactly I came here to make sure to say that people like me who need it , can not even afford it.

[@joewright2679]

HOW MUCH DO I GET??

[@catmomlavender3036]

It looks like this company accepts donations without compensation but I see others that compensate advertise it up front.

Music on the video is way too loud, and it's obnoxious "computer" music 😑

[@carolineryan8088]

Wouldn’t go there from this video because NOBODY wore gloves. Just asking for trouble.
