I remember reading something that said the jabbed can't donate blood
February 24, 2021
As COVID-19 vaccines are being distributed throughout the U.S., what does this mean for blood donors? Great news: if you receive the vaccine, you can still donate blood, platelets and AB Elite plasma!* Donating blood is essential to help save lives and support the efforts of those on the frontlines of the pandemic.
The Red Cross is following FDA blood donation eligibility guidance for those who receive the COVID-19 vaccination. Deferral times for donations may vary depending on which brand of vaccine you received. If you’ve received a COVID-19 vaccine, you’ll need to provide the manufacturer name when you come to donate. In most cases, there is no deferral time for individuals who received a COVID-19 vaccine as long as they are symptom-free and feeling well at the time of donation.
Basically you can donate on the same day which is worse then I imagined, you still have RNA code floating around for 3-7 days.
Wow
Someone from Germany just posted the same for their country.
My reply:
Same here according to the Red Cross, so our blood supply is tainted.
Someone posted how long rna in the vaccine can last once unfrozen, I believe it was 2 weeks and the vial is bad.
Don’t know how long blood stays on the shelf before used or if blood would keep the rna last longer.
Not true in all cases. I had to undergo emergency bypass surgery and I asked the admitting nurse if the local Red Cross accepted vaxxed blood. She did not know but called while admitting me. Their answer was YES they did accept vaxxed blood but did not separate it from regular donors.
Fortunately I did not need a transfusion.
If you are having scheduled surgery, have your own blood drawn and stored. Otherwise its a crap shoot.
Also the hospital I was admitted to was going to deny me emergency surgery if I did not submit to a covid test !!!!!! Fortunately it was a shallow quick nasal test. I guess there is no Hippocratic oath any longer.
This was a major hospital in Wilmington, NC.
Good luck.
It's pretty standard procedure at all hospitals now to so a covid test before surgery. Not sure what happens if the test is positive. Maybe the surgery is delayed?
I’ll google but I think that was for the initial trial participants, not the millions of willing Guinea pigs.
