    I mean, all I have to do is drink a bunch of water before my appointment - like 2 litres, maybe - eat a little and I’m set. Human bodies regenerate blood plasma within days, else you’d not be able to physically sustain donations twice a week, so the only thing I’m losing is my time, which I can spend on my phone.

    Not even touching upon the societal and medicinal benefits of donating blood and plasma, I don’t see what I’m losing here.

    What’s your stance on donating bone marrow and thrombocytes?

      Depends you got a donee or did it go up for bid? Plasma is for profit, so there is no donation. You’re selling. Same as any body seller.
