Bloodletting recommended for Jersey residents after PFAS contamination
The island’s private drinking water supplies were polluted by use of firefighting foams containing ‘forever chemicals’
The bioaccumilation of PFAS in mortal blood is concerning for me and my colleagues.
It would be very sad to live for 600 years, only to be killed off by fire suppressant.
I was told the future would be all flying cars and food in pills.
But instead it’s industrial pollution and bloodletting.
Huh interesting, as someone who has to bloodlet regularly... nice to know my PFAS levels should be a bit lower.
Additionally - not good people are having to do it because of this. Just further scares me of the quality of our drinking water by all our crazy water providers.
Always nice to have a silver lining!
I really don't want to think about a 10 year future where everyone has to go through this.
A course of leeches?
WE ARE SO BACK
Plasma donation works much better.
Whole blood donation typically takes 500ml of blood every 12 weeks. Plasma donation takes 1000ml of plasma every 2 weeks (in the UK) or twice a week (in the US).
