You mean bloodletting, because you can't use the blood for others.

I don't think anyone would mind taking on some pfas or microplastics from a donor if they're about to bleed out. There are always priorities.

Especially since we all have PFAS and microplastics in us at this point. There is no PFAS- and microplastics-free blood.

If all donated blood was screened for trace microplastics, I think we’d have an immediate and total donor blood shortage.
