This will NOT happen to you. There is virtually no health risk to you if you give plasma. You will not contract AIDS by donating plasma. We know our donors by name. We consider you part of our extended family that takes care of its own.
Many donors keep giving year in and year out because they know their good deeds are appreciated.
It's a relationship of mutual respect. Not a chance. Some of our donors just want to take a welcome rest. Who doesn't have a few minutes to spare during the course of a month - especially when you can read books or magazines or have someone else take care of your kids for awhile. Our Staff, however is extraordinarily competent - in fact, if you don't look at the needle, you'll think you were just given a tiny pinch.
