About possibility of receiving vaccine "tainted" blood. What makes them think there will be room for antivaxxers in the hospital to receive transfusions the way things are going? They're filling up so many of the hospital beds with seriously ill COVID patients is there room for trauma patients and patients undergoing surgery, which are the most common needs for blood transfusions? It's not just the influx of new COVID patients, we keep reading about so many of those notorious celebrity rabid antivaxxers who contracted COVID being on a vent for 30 days or more. Hoovering up all those valuable medical resources.

But perhaps we can harvest their blood for the next person. Who also will not know if it's 'tainted' or not.
Circle of Life and all that.
