Description:

Canadian supply of blood plasma is vital. As it stands now, Canadian Blood Services collects 15% of Canada's plasma supply, the rest from the US. And in the US, it's common place for plasma donors to be compensated. There are some ethical issues that arise from this of course, which is why we've seen outrage by the notion that we might move in that direction. Canadian Blood Services has signed a deal with a private, for-profit company to collect plasma from donors here in Canada, with the goal of increasing our domestic supply.

Angela Diano. Executive Director - Alpha-1 Canada.
