There are ethical concerns if a donation is not of free will and with no expectation of benefits.
If you get blood panel results with a "donation", it's an exchange of value, not a donation.
- Scoundreller 2y agoAlso ethical problems with paid staff and executives that treat the volunteer donation system like a business. See: various blood-donation-borne disease scandals in history. Nobody seems to ask for those positions to all become volunteer/unpaid. Nevertheless, there seems enough blood from a donation-only system, but not so for plasma (or most other live donation systems).
