Why should China implement the unpaid blood donation system?

Unpaid blood donation was recommended and advocated by the International Red Cross and the World Health Organization since the 30s of this century, and China continues to use this system.

After decades of unremitting efforts, many countries in the world have gradually transitioned from paid blood donation in the past to unpaid blood donation, and finally realized unpaid blood donation by citizens. For example, Germany, Japan, Switzerland, the United States, Canada, and other countries have successively realized all or basically all of the unpaid blood donations by citizens. In 1984, the Ministry of Health and the Red Cross Society of China advocated unpaid blood donation nationwide, and Shenzhen and Hainan provinces took the lead in establishing a system of unpaid blood donation through local legislation.

After vigorous publicity, in 1996, Shenzhen's unpaid blood donation has reached 42 for medical and clinical use. Unpaid blood donation is a system that reflects the progress of social civilization. However, due to the influence of concepts, the good atmosphere of unpaid blood donation has not been widely formed in China, and medical and clinical blood still mainly depends on individual blood supply and voluntary blood donation.

It is very necessary for the state to establish a system of unpaid blood donation through legislation and promote the development of unpaid blood donation in China.

Because unpaid blood donation is a very good system for both donors and patients.

For patients: traumatic hemorrhage, postpartum hemorrhage, severe burns, various blood diseases, and surgical wounded need to be treated by blood transfusion. Since blood cannot be artificially manufactured or replaced by other substances, it can only be obtained by donations from the majority of healthy, school-age citizens.

Therefore, donating blood for free means helping patients who need blood.

For blood donors: it can promote and improve mental health. A large number of studies have shown that a healthy mood can communicate with the brain and other tissues and organs through the nervous, humoral and endocrine systems, so that they are in a good state, which is beneficial to the enhancement of human immunity and resistance.

Blood donation is a noble act to save people's lives, while helping others and being kind to others, it also purifies their spirits, comforts their souls, and makes their work and life more fulfilling. Those who do good deeds do good deeds, and actually help themselves while helping others, which is an important element of health and longevity.

Unpaid blood donation refers to the voluntary and unpaid provision of blood by citizens to blood banks. Unpaid blood donation can not only ensure the needs of medical and clinical blood, but also an important symbol of social spiritual civilization, a strong bond to promote solidarity and mutual assistance between people, and a system that embodies the progress of social civilization.

Only unpaid blood donation, which is based on humanitarian selfless dedication rather than financial reward, can minimize the risk of blood-borne diseases and ensure the safety of donors and recipients.

Unpaid blood donation is an important symbol of social spiritual civilization, a strong bond to promote mutual care and friendship between people, and a new fashion in modern life. Unpaid blood donation is an important guarantee of safe blood use and blood quality, and can minimize the risk of blood-borne diseases. Healthy school-age citizens who are eligible for blood donation are actively participating in unpaid blood donation, and the blood needed for the patient's first aid** can be truly guaranteed.

Why do we donate blood for free.

We donate blood for free, and the hospital sells our blood for money.

The scope of unpaid blood donation is for healthy citizens aged 18-55. The Blood Donation Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates:"The State encourages healthy citizens aged 18-55 to donate blood voluntarily.

Regarding the age regulations for blood donation, the regulations of various countries in the world are inconsistent, and the regulations of various provinces and municipalities in China are also somewhat different. The provisions of the Blood Donation Law are established and balanced on the basis of factors such as the physical fitness of our citizens and the need to meet the needs of blood use. The age limit of 18-year-old legal person with full capacity in China, unpaid blood donation is a voluntary act of citizens, and it needs to be decided by a person with full capacity for conduct, and the blood donation law stipulates that 18 years old is the minimum age for unpaid blood donation, which is consistent with other laws and regulations in China.

Taking into account the physical condition of our citizens and the practice of various places, the law stipulates that 55 years old is the end age for unpaid blood donation. However, the age of termination of blood donation stipulated by law is only a general provision in the law, and it does not mean that blood donation is not allowed after the termination age.

Articles 2 and 3 of the Blood Donation Law of the People's Republic of China stipulate that the State shall implement a system of unpaid blood donation. The State encourages healthy citizens between the ages of 18 and 55 to donate blood voluntarily. If the blood donor has donated blood several times in the past, voluntarily requested it, and is in good health, and meets the blood donation requirements, the age can be relaxed to 60 years old.

Article 7 of the Blood Donation Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that the State encourages state functionaries, servicemen on active duty and students in institutions of higher learning to take the lead in donating blood, so as to set an example for establishing a new social trend. Donating blood for free is not harmful to your health, and the blood you donate continues the hope of life. All members of the public of healthy age are welcome to actively participate.

Article 14 of the Blood Donation Law stipulates that citizens shall only pay for the collection, storage, separation, and testing of blood when they use blood clinically; The specific charging standards shall be formulated by the health administrative department in conjunction with the competent department of *****. Unpaid blood donors who need blood clinically are exempt from paying the fees specified in the preceding paragraph; When the spouses and immediate family members of unpaid blood donors need blood clinically, they may be exempted or reduced from paying the fees specified in the preceding paragraph in accordance with the provisions of the people** of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government.

The blood donation system implemented in China is a voluntary unpaid blood donation system, that is, individuals are willing to donate blood without compensation, and they are not allowed to obtain benefits in any form.

The blood donation system implemented in China is a voluntary unpaid blood donation system, which means that individuals donate blood voluntarily and without compensation, and no benefits can be obtained in any form. This system is designed to protect the rights and safety of blood donors, and at the same time to effectively prevent the occurrence of illegal blood trade and profit. The implementation of China's voluntary blood donation system requires the establishment of a scientific, perfect and standardized management system.

Blood banks at all levels need to carefully screen blood donors and test blood samples to ensure the quality and safety of blood and that the health of blood donors is not compromised. In addition to this fight, it is also necessary to strengthen the public's publicity and education on blood donation, and improve the awareness and enthusiasm of blood donation. The voluntary unpaid blood donation system implemented in China not only helps to maintain social public health and epidemic prevention safety, but also is a manifestation of active participation in social public welfare undertakings.

The implementation of this system also requires the joint efforts and support of all sectors of society and the masses.

Why does China implement a voluntary unpaid blood donation system? China's implementation of the voluntary unpaid blood donation system is mainly based on the following considerations: first, voluntary unpaid blood donation can ensure the rights and safety of blood donors; secondly, to prevent the occurrence of illegal trading of blood and profits; Finally, strengthen the public's publicity and education on blood donation, and improve the awareness and enthusiasm of blood donation.

The blood donation system implemented in China is based on the principle of voluntary and unpaid, that is, individuals who donate blood voluntarily are not allowed to obtain benefits in any form. The implementation of this system is conducive to maintaining social public health and epidemic prevention safety, and is also a manifestation of active participation in social welfare undertakings.

The main purpose of China's unpaid blood donation system is to ensure blood safety.

Although medical development is changing rapidly, there is currently no way to completely solve the window period in the world. The window period is the period of time before the pathogen infects the human body and the pathogen marker can be detected in the blood. During the window of illness, the virus is not detectable in the blood, but it can still spread.

Even the most advanced virus nucleic acid tests can only relatively shorten the window period, but not zero. It is precisely because of this problem that the World Health Organization and the Red Cross Society of the National Spring Festival have pushed for unpaid blood donation.

Unpaid blood donation refers to the act of voluntarily deferring one's own blood in order to save the lives of others, and the donor does not receive any economic remuneration or benefits for donating blood. Therefore, only by implementing voluntary unpaid blood donation can the safety of blood be truly guaranteed from the source.
