Blood Donation Knowledge Mini Science

1. Why does the country implement a voluntary blood donation system?

1. So far, blood cannot be artificially synthesized and blood sources can only be provided by healthy citizens donating blood.

2 Groups such as surgery patients, trauma victims, leukemia, and thalassemia patients require large amounts of blood daily. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), at least 3 people worldwide need blood transfusions every second, and the annual clinical blood usage in our country reaches about 2,500 tons, equivalent to about 10 million blood donations.

3 Paid individual blood donors, due to frequent donations, experience a decline in blood quality, failing to meet treatment purposes, and also provide a breeding ground for the spread of blood-borne diseases.

2. Is blood donation beneficial to the body?

1 It benefits blood metabolism. Human blood is constantly metabolizing; generally, red blood cells renew every four months. Donating 200-400ml, which accounts for only 5%-10% of total blood volume, is quickly replenished by the body's "blood bank," so moderate blood donation does not affect health.

2 Healthy people who donate blood regularly can reduce blood viscosity. Consistently donating an appropriate amount of blood over time can significantly reduce blood viscosity, accelerate blood flow, improve the body's blood and oxygen supply, and maintain normal physiological functions. Regular donors have younger blood cells and more vigorous hematopoietic function than non-donors.

3 Prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Regular moderate blood donation can reduce the content of iron and copper in the blood, remove impurities, toxins, and fats from the blood, thereby preventing and reducing the incidence of arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and alleviating or preventing hyperviscosity syndrome. Moderate blood donation in men can also prevent cancer.

4 Equivalent to a free health checkup. Before donation, blood center staff conduct detailed health inquiries for donors, and after donation, blood samples are strictly tested to screen for blood-borne diseases such as HIV, hepatitis B, and syphilis.

3. Blood donation subsidy policies
