Bh, I had the zichus of donating plasma. It was a great feeling.
Registration opened for crown heights
Do they take a lot of blood?
why are women with multiple prior pregnancies excluded?
Women who have been pregnant more than once have a 20 - 30% chance of having something called an HLA antibody, which would make their plasma not able to be used. Although the New York Blood Center will test for that antibody, and not use the plasma if the antibody is present, there remains a 20 - 30% chance that the plasma from women pregnant more than once will not be usable. Whether a woman has this antibody will not be known until they go to donate plasma and the plasma is tested for this antibody. Therefore, during this current testing drive, we would like to first fill the available slots with men and women who have not been pregnant more than once, to maximize the efficiency of the collections. IF YOU HAVE HAD MORE THAN ONE PREGNANCY, PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THE ANTIBODY TESTING DRIVE TODAY. Just to be clear, if this applies to you, you ARE still eligible for donations, just not antibody testing during THIS drive. We will keep you updated if and when these guidelines change. Our deepest apologies for the confusion and any inconvenience caused, tizku l’mitzvos!
They ask that you confirm real symptoms like over 99 fever.Anyone know if they accept other symptoms like a combination of cough, muscle ach, weakness?
Any details if where they will use it ?
would it be fair to include it as 'like' fever?
