peacefulhome:I don't understand why Nigerians expect a different species of Nigerians in health sector. The corruption has eaten deep all system. A banker that is corrupt wants to meet a saint in the hospital, the one selling face mask for 15000 naira is looking for free blood in the hospital. Focus more on getting good health care for yourself. Go to private hospital if you can afford it. |

I paid and was led to donate. I did donate a pint of blood. I was told that it will be used for the donee. The donee's blood level was 36% after delivery and needed the blood but the donee was not given any. My take here is: if you will not use the blood later, do not demand it as a criterion for giving birth. The hospital should ascertain a particular level of blood a woman should have before delivery. If the level is not reached, the blood donor should be told to donate one. It is a scam to demand blood which apriori you know you will not use for the donee later. And there is no guaranty that I will be given the pint freely if I later return to the hospital in need of blood. mzhannie: |

Foolish decsiosn from someone without the technical know how.. Nigerians don't donate blood and when it is needed for delivery or post delivery issues it becomes life threatening and the blood bank may not have any in store to give even with your money. Those saying they sell the blood, the cost of screening, blood bag, storage is more than what you pay for blood. For places that use PCR to screen like NBTS it is even more than 50k to screen with PCR but patients pay like 7k for the blood, highly subsidized. The major source of blood in Nigeria is replacement donation from patient relative. Hospitals don't manufacture blood, when people don't donate the price will skyrocket. With your money you won't see the blood 1 Like 1 Share |

Pinonwa:Hope your 3k will also buy regulated blood bank fridge and steady power to store it till it is needed for use. Also buy Anti A, B, anti D, Bovine Albumin, AhG for grouping and crossmatch ?. Healthcare is expensive and what you pay in Govt hospital is a fraction of the actual cost of whatever service is provided to you. You guys should find out the number one cause of bankruptcy in the almighty USA it is medical debt. |

Lostz:lol, please don't say what you don't know. All donated blood are accounted for. Anyone that sneaks any blood out in a govt hospital that will always have shortage of blood will lose his/her job. Most times it is even private blood bank govt hospitals turn to for supply when they are seriously in need |

Many patients in cancer management may need up to 10 pints of blood and above especially leukemia cases. That is 10 people's blood used up by one person. Multiply that by 10 patiens on such condition and you will know how many people need to donate for just a small number of patient. |

Scholar212:they do all the time and still direct patients to buy from there..... their excuse is that blood will expire so they send it to where it will be used quickly |

Re: Court Stops Lagos Public Hospitals From Demanding Blood Donations For Childbirth by mzhannie(f): 1:35pm On Mar 04, 2020 |
Pcv of 36% is okay and thus do not require transfusion. And the outcome of delivery can't be ascertain during antenatal anything like PPH can pop up so one has to prepare hence the donation.. So if it isn't used just act you donated as an act of humanitarian service cos it's isn't sold. I am sure what you paid for is grouping and crossmatching. Mopolchi: |

owelle22:Did you people agree on a refund if she doesn't use it? Did you ask for terms and conditions |
Re: Court Stops Lagos Public Hospitals From Demanding Blood Donations For Childbirth by Shakes85: 1:45pm On Mar 04, 2020 |
luluman:If it was needed by 2 am will you provide it? Also I think you have a choice to use another hospital that won't force you to donate blood . That policy works for the general hospital and it has saved lots of lives. |

Joeboy88: That's why people don't donate. If You like donate blood twice per year. When you fall sick and need blood, hospital will still ask you to buy blood at #16,000.00 |

omoharry: All your inconsequential ranting will get nothing done.... Next time don't vote in shitz hole leaders to rule you.... Pressure your leaders to do the right thing that will ensure smooth running of hospitals.... Doctors are not your problem..... In Saudi, every driving licence applicants are mandated to donate blood so long u are fit.... Singapore offer financial reward to blood donors.... U are not talking about ways to incentivise blood donations among Nigerians.... But u want hospitals to give out blood free.... Some even want doctors to bleed themselves for patients....quite unfortunate, because lots of doctors do that anyway..... 1 Like |

SIRTee15:You guys should stop selling free blood donated, then people will freely donate their blood without been told to do so including me. I have seen on several occasion how poor patient are refused blood transfusion because they could not pay for the blood at that point in time.They are left to die due to non payment.Meanwhile the donor donated their blood for people like that..what has voting in good or bad leaders got to do with your humanity and that of other doctors?. |

Lostz:Abio... you are donating your blood free, but the Lagos State you are donating to is charging between N10,000 - N15,000 just to screen the blood. Are the doctors, nurses and lab technicians not being paid salary from the state coffers? Are the equipments not property of the Lagos State governments? Is it reagents that cost N15,000? |
