    This wording is amusing because it sounds like you're looking for someone on this site to take some blood off your hands.

    Good on you for donating though; there's a constant need. There is no replacement for blood we can manufacture so a surprising chunk of medical care depends on crowdsourced blood products (blood, red blood cells, plasma, etc)

    Thank you, Also, PSA, check your blood type because if you are O-, not only is your blood type rare(3% of the world's population), you can only accept blood from other O- people

    O- isn't even the rarest blood type, B- is only 1% but they can accept blood from more than one blood groups(-B-, O-). So you should think of banking your blood overtime in case of an emergency.

    Also Also, O+ is 50% of the worlds population, and can be accepted by many blood groups(A+,B+,AB+,O+), so consider donating blood if you fall in that group(or really, if you aren't, its costs you very little and your body relishs it in less than 2 weeks).

    Edit: linked the wrong article. Wanted to like the article that talks about blood group distributions in the world buy couldn't find it.
