Q U E S T IO N S and A N SW E R S
ON THE BLOOD PROGRAM
Either the headlines and feature articles about juvenile
delinquency are exaggerated or Nyssa s young people
are the exception.
We are inclined to believe that feature article writing
to bemoan the ‘‘terrible crime record” of young people
is a current fad with one writer getting his idea from an
other and using statistics that can always be twisted to
prove a point.
Nvssa’s juvenile ‘‘crime record” is so small that it
might be called negligible. Any pranks that border on
law-breaking are settled without fanfare and there is
an excellent record of individual cases being settled once
and for all.
This community can be proud of its young people as
much for their mature activities as for their observance
of governing laws and the rules of society.
Unfortunately, Nyssa is not large enough to maintain
elaborate recreational programs deemed necessary for
children and youths in metropolitan areas. This commun
ity is made up of rural-minded people, there are progres
sive churches of a choice of denominations and there is
a far better-than-average school system, which all con
tribute to the type of young people we can be proud of.
If you don’t believe it, look at the number of boys and
girls who are gainfully employed during their spare time,
listen to and recognize their manner of salesmanship and
courtesy when they are soliciting for school affairs, or
visit the Journal office on alternate Saturdays and ob
serve the business-like manner in which the Bulldog
staff handles their school paper.
America will be in good hands in the future if all com
munities have Nyssa’s type of teen-agers who help make
up its population.

This includes more people than some think—a healthy percentage of
everybody, in fact, the man with loads of money, the man with none;
the homemaker, the career girl, steamshovel operator and executive;
outdoor people, indoor people; city slickers, country boys—whose
blood he gets doesn’t make much difference to the ill or injured
person who needs it to live.
QUESTION: How much blood is in the body?
ANSWER: In the average, healthy adult—12 to 13 pints.
A healthy person’s blood is constantly being replenished in the body,
hence, the removal of a pint calls for no special effort on the body’s
part. The liquid part of the blood is replaced almost immediately,
the cells and minerals after a few days.
QUESTION: Does a donor experience any noticeable effect from giving
blood?
ANSWER: A healthy person should feel none whatever.
Every precaution is taken to assure that the donor be scarcely aware
of giving his blood. A mild skin anesthetic insures that he doesn’t
feel the needle. Blood is withdrawn at a steady, uniform rate com
patible with the normal rate of flow in the veins. The donor rests
both before and after donation.
QUESTION: Does giving blood lower resistance to illness?
ANSWER: NO.
*
Donating a pint of blood is comparable to an afternoon’s exercise. A
person in good health can do either safely. “ Resistance” to illness—
doctors use the term because it has wide popular acceptance—is rela
tive. We say a person has “ resistance” when the hundreds of inter
related blood functions are doing their job well; if one function falls
out of step, “ resistance” is lowered because a week place has develop
ed. This has no relation to giving blood—a temporary absence of one
pint of blood in the bloodstream makes no difference in the function
ing of the healthy body.
QUESTION: What recognition does the donor receive?
ANSWER: He is entitled to wear a pin designed to flatter any lapel or
blouse. A few days after his donation, a donor card is mailed to him.
The card serves a triple purpose; to thank him for his donation, show
the dates of his donations, and record his blood group and Rh factor
(determined in the center laboratory following donation).
QUESTION: Does the Red Cross charge for blood collected through its
centers?
ANSWER: Never:
Blood collected through the Red Cross is provided as a public ser
vice; under no circumstances does the Red Cross ask for or receive
payment for blood or the cost of collecting, storing and distributing it.
QUESTION: Then why are some people charged following a transfusion?
ANSWER: Blood collected by the Red Cross is provided to physicians and
hospitals for care of their patients. Before blood can be administered
to a patient, it must be carefully tested and mixed with a sample of
the recipient’s blood (crossmatched) to be sure it will not cause a
reaction. The cost of this laboratory work and the cost of the set
through which the blood is given are usually borne by the patient.
QUESTION: Does the Red Cross Blood Program require replacement of
blood?
More than 2a percent of the population of any community in the
United States could qualify in all respects as blood donors yet one
pint of blood each year from only 5 percent of the population would
supply all present community and defense requirements of the nation.

%
ANSWER: Any person 21 through 59, in good health and weighing 110 lbs.
or more. Those 13 through 20 years of age may give blood, with par
ental consent. Persons 18 through 20 in the armed forces or married
do not need parental consent.
ANSWER: No.
Blood is supplied on the basis of medical need. It is recognized, how
ever, that there is no magic source of blood. It comes only from the
veins of individuals interested in supporting a blood program. Na
turally, the people who should be most interested in the success of
such a program are those who have just experienced its benefit. The
family of a patient who has received blood should be given n oppor
tunity and encouraged to replenish the supply of blood, in a volun
tary program, however, prior placement or replenishment are not
mandatory requirements.
