I guess I mean don't do it the max amount every week

[–] ericbomb 10 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I mean we are in permanent undersupply.

So everyone that is willing should do it. If everyone did it once a month we wouldn't need multi week people, but all we can really get is impoverished people doing it a ton. :shrug:

Welcome to dystopia!

You're saying "we." Are you involved in plasma collection/donation drives/however I should phrase that?

If so, I'm curious about something. I'm gay, and sexually active. I have protected sex, and I'm on prep. I do have multiple partners, though. Should I donate? Because I've always used the whole gay ban as an excuse not to, because I truly despise needles to a phobia level. But I'd like to help if I can.

Oh I donated plasma when I could so that's why I use "we". I'm too sick now, but you almost certainly can volunteer at blood drives to help and the like, can even help organize them if you have access to a public space. You should reach out.
