𝐃𝐨 𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝? 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐥 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡

Many are wondering why blood banks ask for money to give blood they collected for "free"

And this is the reason why many shy away from donating blood.

You see, After a donor donates blood, there are a series of test and procedures that are carried out to ensure that the blood is safe for transfusion.

Laboratory test on
📍Blood Sugar
📍Haemoglobin levels
📍Blood group
📍RD test on Syphilis, hepatitis B&C
📍HIV first and Second line
And sometimes Chlamydia

Before transfusing into a patient
📍They carry out Crossmatching test and blood group confirmation for the patient

All these test cost weigh over 50 thousand francs but thats far greater than the amount patients gives for a pint of blood.

The hospital doesn't sell blood
They don't even make profit from blood but huge losses.

Thats because blood is toooo precious to be sold and to have a market value.

Now that you know this, whats stopping you from becoming a blood donor

THE V@GINA

A väginã is a part of the female reproductive system. It's a muscular, tube-like structure that connects the external ge****ls (the v***a) to the uterus. It plays an important role in menstruation, s€xual in*******se, and childbirth. The v@gina allows for the passage of menstrual bløôd, receives the p€nis during s£x, and serves as the birth canal during delivery.

Here are some ways to care for it

1. Practice good hygiene
2. Stay hydrated (drink a lot of water )
3.Wear breathable clothing
4. Urinate after s£x

⚠️ Global health gains are slowing, a new WHO statistics report reveals.

📉 In just two years, between 2019-2021, global life expectancy fell by 1.8 years – the largest drop in recent history – reversing a decade of health gains.

The report also summarizes global data on progress towards WHO’s triple billion targets.

Here are some of the key findings:

💪🏽 An estimated 1.4 billion more people were living healthier by the end of 2024, surpassing the 1 billion target. The progress was driven by:

🔹 Reduction in to***co use
🔹 Improved air quality
🔹 Better access to water, hygiene and sanitation

🩺 Only 431 million more people gained access to essential health services without financial hardship.

🚨 Nearly 637 million more people were better protected from health emergencies.

🤰🏽 Maternal and child deaths are not falling fast enough to reach global targets. Progress has stalled, putting millions of lives at risk.

🫀 Premature deaths from NCDs—such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cancer—are rising, driven by population growth and aging.

🍺 Global alcohol consumption dropped from 5.7 to 5.0 liters per capita between 2010 and 2022.

📉 HIV and TB incidence rates are falling, and fewer people need treatment for neglected tropical diseases.

🦟 Malaria has been resurging since 2015, and antimicrobial resistance remains a public health challenge.

🚫 Recent disruptions in international aid further threaten to destabilize progress, particularly in countries with the greatest health-care needs.

The recommended number of eggs to eat varies depending on factors such as age, s*x, and overall health. Here are some general guidelines:

General Guidelines
- *Healthy adults*: The American Heart Association recommends limiting dietary cholesterol to 300 milligrams per day, which is about 1-2 eggs per day.
- *People with high cholesterol*: The American Heart Association recommends limiting dietary cholesterol to 200 milligrams per day, which is about 1 egg per day or less.
- *Pregnant women*: The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends limiting dietary cholesterol to 300 milligrams per day, which is about 1-2 eggs per day.

Duration
- *Daily*: Eating 1-2 eggs per day is generally considered safe for most adults.
- *Weekly*: Eating 3-4 eggs per week is also considered safe, as long as they are part of a balanced diet.

Considerations
- *Cholesterol content*: Eggs are relatively high in cholesterol, with about 186 milligrams per large egg.
- *Saturated fat content*: Eggs are relatively low in saturated fat, but cooking methods can add saturated fat.
- *Other nutrients*: Eggs are a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals, making them a nutritious addition to a balanced diet.

Special Considerations
- *High-risk individuals*: People with high cholesterol, heart disease, or other health conditions may need to limit their egg consumption further.
- *Egg allergies*: Some people may be allergic to eggs, in which case they should avoid eating them altogether.

It's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider or registered dietitian for personalized nutrition advice.
