All this blood bank and hospital stuff is really depressing, and I was thinking, is there like... idk a way to set up our own blood drive? Not here, obviously, but like, in District X, specifically for mutants (yes Quentin you can stand at the entrance like a bouncer and say "sorry no flatscans". Maybe try to be nice though?). Schools set up blood drives all the time, we donated at Berkley like nine times, and I know that was run through Red Cross or something. So theoretically we could get a hospital or somewhere around here to do one too, right?

Just a thought, I mean. There has to be something we can do, even it's just a rinky dink thing in District X.

I'm reasonably certain you can't just collect blood samples and give them to a hospital for clinical use. It's not like a canned food or clothing drive. You need trained, certified professionals involved in the collection, storage, and shipment of any biospecimen.

Dude, that would be why I mentioned getting a hospital or something to help ;) I just meant does anyone know a way to get the wheels rolling

The American Red Cross, for all their ineffectiveness combating the FDA's regressiveness, has a helpful guide: https://www.redcrossblood.org/hosting-a-blood-drive/learn-about-hosting/how-hosting-a-blood-drive-works.html Find a clinic that does accept mutant blood and get in touch with them.

Check and check dude

Hmm, the Claremont might be interested. How about see if I can find someone who will be able to tell you more? I do know that in the ER we sometimes have to use blood that is slightly different on mutants, so this might actually help them as well.

That'd be awesome! Could you?

Also that. That scene in mad max where max sticks the catheter in furiosa and starts bleeding in it is not how this works.

Just don't.

You guys do know I meant do this legit, right? Not just roll up and drop a bucket of blood on some clinic's doorstep and drive away in the dead of night?

[xp_artie]

You never know, though.
