I can't donate blood but I get my blood drawn regularly for lab tests, my blood is medium red. And I've vaxxed, devaxxed, and revaxxed, it all looked the same to me.
I had a stem cell transplant, which kinda undoes your previous vaccinations, and then you have to get pretty much every vaccine you were given before again.
My guess is they had a stem cell transplant. Your immune system gets wiped out, and your body has to rebuild it with the new stem cells. Because it's a brand new immune system, you have to get all of your vaccinations again.
There are several factors that can change the color of the blood. Genetic factors, whether someone has exercised or moved a lot beforehand, or whether they have drunk enough fluids can all affect the color of the blood. The image is not indicative at all.
I process blood there is always a range of shades. The darker the blood the less oxygen is in it. Brighter usually means more oxygen. Bright bright red means they hit the artery instead of the vein.
Mine comes out a bright purple. Like, Barney. V factor, and some sort of mild hormone issue cause it I guess. Every single time I've had a big blood draw, they comment on that color. I clot so fast that usually they have to take extra vials, because it will clot inside the vial before they set it down. Real annoying.
I had a period that was bright purple, I freaked out so bad I called an ambulance, they were also admittedly pretty freaked out so taking me into the Emergency was pretty standard, the nurse who did my intake was so calm about it and explained it was due to hormones and they're gonna do a whole slew of blood tests because clearly it wasn't normal, turns out I had a virus that accidentally caused my hormones to overload because my white cell count was through the roof. Antivirals and a heap of other medications including a multivitamin for a couple months and everything went back to normal. Didn't even know I was sick until then.
With all due respect, what the fuck ! This is fascinating to me. Especially clotting so fast ?? If I am not being too invasive, do you know what causes the super fast clotting ?
Think it's called v factor Leiden. You can look that up, but it means I know how I die--a stroke. Have not had one, but with this, it's pretty much inevitable.
The nurse definetely does not hit an artery by accident and still draws blood from it. It hurts much more, bleeds intensely and provides an inproper blood sample
Blood depleted of hemoglobin will be pale red and thin, not dark purple and thick. Red blood cells (which contain hemoglobin) give blood its red color and viscosity. They are bright red when oxygenated (arteries) and dark red when deoxygenated (veins). Plasma which makes up the liquid portion of blood is golden yellow. Donated blood is usually a dark red-purple color since it’s drawn from a vein. Personally, I have received at least 8 Covid vaccines and my hemoglobin is 16.2 (normal is 12-15.5 for women). The blood bank loves me as I’m never anemic (not even close!) and I’m CMV negative so my blood can go to newborns.
My plasma was always just slightly green back when I was young and po' and "donated" for money.
I kinda thought at the time maybe it was because I was vegetarian, but when I asked knowledgeable people (before spouting crackpot theories!) I learned it's common for oral contraceptives to do so, among other things, and that it didn't have any negative effect (something about copper levels?)
Vein vs artery. It's pretty uncommon to catch an artery in a blood donation, but it happens. And when it happens, that's what it looks like, bright red.
The “vaxxed” side isn’t how my blood looked after I would give blood it looked more like the “unvaxxed” side. I gave blood regularly up until this year when I was diagnosed with breast cancer so I can’t until I’m a year cancer free. I got my first Covid vaccine in 2021 and have gotten every booster.
There was a brief moment in 2020 and 2021 when there was a small amount of demand for blood from people who had recovered from COVID-19 but, after the vaccines were out, had not been vaccinated. The American Red Cross tested blood donors for antibody reactivity for a few months to find these people.
I feel like anti-VAX people have not yet recovered from this brief, beautiful moment of their blood being specifically in demand.
Oh my god everything about this is wrong. Let’s not even talk about the vaxxed vs not vaxxed part of this, since the everyone here knows that’s bullshit.
Blood is brighter when it’s oxygenated. The blood on the left probably has more oxygen. Differences in blood oxygen levels can have a number of causes, and many of them are completely innocent, like altitude.
Blood can also look lighter in color with high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. This can be seen in basically everyone soon after a meal that contained any type of fat, and in those folks with chronically high blood lipids. With milder cases the blood just looks like a lighter red, in more severe cases the blood looks like a strawberry milkshake. The strawberry milkshake is usually seen in people with genetically high cholesterol who are not being treated.
Hemoglobin is the molecule in your blood that contains iron and causes blood to be red. If someone has low hemoglobin, their blood is paler and thinner, it absolutely would not be dark and thick. And hemoglobin levels can be low, the most common form of anemia is from iron deficiency and therefore low hemoglobin. But if hemoglobin is depleted, you’re dead. No hemoglobin, no way to get oxygen around the body, no life.
It implies that not only are people just not getting injured, but that people don’t exist if they are outside their echo chamber dweller basement. That’s literally the only way this could be true
To think that anybody could shut down this fragile fantasy that they based their entire identity on with a single paper cut. Sheltered vibes
As a med tech who has worked in blood banks ... both are "normal" color. Blood is collected from VEINS and venous blood is dark because the hemoglobin is low in oxygen.
True story. Anytime I give blood that's the first question. Then they stab me anyway fill up the bag, throw it in the trash and scold me and tell me it's worthless. /s
They literally check your haemoglobin levels when you give blood and turn you away if you're too low. It's telling that these people have never donated and don't know that.
Do they think people who are vaccinated never cut themselves and see their own blood? Not to mention having a period.
I've never had a period
Well then man up and give it a try, coward!
Instructions unclear. Ambulance en route.
In this economy?
Yeah I'll walk-
OP is a pussy eh!
That's okay, you can have mine
Gift or curse ?
Call it
and my axe
You wanna have mine for me?
That's what the vaccine is doing to you.
Skill issue. Try harder.
Damn. Same.
I can't donate blood but I get my blood drawn regularly for lab tests, my blood is medium red. And I've vaxxed, devaxxed, and revaxxed, it all looked the same to me.
devaccinated? huh?
That's where you put a half of a potato on your injection site to draw out all the poisons and 5G nanobots...
I tried that and was told I was doing it wrong
I had a stem cell transplant, which kinda undoes your previous vaccinations, and then you have to get pretty much every vaccine you were given before again.
ahhhh okay fascinating i was like wtf how lol
My guess is they had a stem cell transplant. Your immune system gets wiped out, and your body has to rebuild it with the new stem cells. Because it's a brand new immune system, you have to get all of your vaccinations again.
No.
Hotel maintenance here. Have had a bunch of jabs.
My blood is still really friggin red. Still makes a mess all over the dumb ass knuckle busting nut too. Nothing thick about it.
If it's causing you to bleed, you may be trying too hard.
You’re right.
Sometimes I should ask for help from a friend or use a tool for assistance.
Don’t forget to keep your tools clean and properly lubed, and always make sure you’re wearing adequate protection for the job
Or donate blood?
I've had lots of COVID vax and I haven't had a period since, WHY ISNT ANYONE TALKING ABOUT THIS
To all the creeps who started following me
My account was hacked by some mediocre onlyfans girl to use as a bot account. Feel free to continue but expect less booba.
Isn't that from yourself.
Not sure what your point is?
Blooddonater

I think I'd freak the fuck out if my blood came out bright purple.
I had a period that was bright purple, I freaked out so bad I called an ambulance, they were also admittedly pretty freaked out so taking me into the Emergency was pretty standard, the nurse who did my intake was so calm about it and explained it was due to hormones and they're gonna do a whole slew of blood tests because clearly it wasn't normal, turns out I had a virus that accidentally caused my hormones to overload because my white cell count was through the roof.

So you like got a cut or something and bled purple? Well I guess I better make sure I never bleed again.
They said "a period" as in menstrual, not an amount of time
Oh. Wow, how did i miss that 😆 I think in my brain I read it as like "a period of time"
Haha, I gotchu
"I'm a Klingon!"
With all due respect, what the fuck ! This is fascinating to me. Especially clotting so fast ?? If I am not being too invasive, do you know what causes the super fast clotting ?

Wow. I’m so sorry. I hope medicine can advance enough to help you
Do they have you on blood thinners?
My dude, if you lived in early medieval times, you’d be crowned as a new, god-appointed monarch.
User name checks out.
The nurse definetely does not hit an artery by accident and still draws blood from it. It hurts much more, bleeds intensely and provides an inproper blood sample
Hell id even say that donation to donation im sure ive seen my blood be at a different shade of red.
Ive done 20, before and after covid
Nicely done 👍
$5 says the last time this person saw bags of blood was watching TV.
"I saw this on
Dr.Phil, it HAS to be true!!!11"Dr. Oz
"I SAWWIT MAHSELF YOU KEEP SPREADING YOUR LIBRUL LIES!!1"
I've seen both those colors from the same patient on the same day.
Also hemoglobin levels are quantifiable, so if this were actually a thing they would be able to prove it.
ETA: If you were depleted of hemoglobin, they wouldn't be taking that much blood from you. Signed, a former anemic
I've given a lot of blood over the years, and neither bag represents me. But the right bag is much closer to what I produce than the left.
Fucking idiots.
How are we supposed to educate people who are THIS susceptible to misinformation

theyre still doing this? its been FIVE YEARS
Because they’re going to try to convince themselves they were right for the rest of their lives, however long or short a time that is.
We were all supposed to be dead by now a few times over
Do they don’t realize how easily this is disproven? It’s a knee scrape away…
They don't care, as long as their biases continue to be confirmed by random social media accounts based in China, India, and Russia.
Vein vs artery. It's pretty uncommon to catch an artery in a blood donation, but it happens. And when it happens, that's what it looks like, bright red.
Arterial blood is a much brighter red than what's in the picture. Both bags in the picture are venous blood.
I donate plasma. Im sure they would have noticed if my blood was tarry black.
Guess who's never worked at a blood bank
Well this is the dumbest thing I’ve seen in a bit. I’ve seen people’s blood look like one side one day and the other just a few days to a week later.
Arterial vs. venous blood.
'depleted of Hemoglobin'?
Lol.... I totally woke up today, breathing and existing, maybe my body didn't get the memo about not having Hemoglobin anymore.
Depleted of hemoglobin. What the hell do they think makes blood red?
Jesus pigments?
The main issue here is assuming they think at all.
Oh right. My bad!
The “vaxxed” side isn’t how my blood looked after I would give blood it looked more like the “unvaxxed” side. I gave blood regularly up until this year when I was diagnosed with breast cancer so I can’t until I’m a year cancer free. I got my first Covid vaccine in 2021 and have gotten every booster.
Everything is a conspiracy for those people because they're too stupid to understand how anything works
I am always surprised and dismayed people fall for this obvious bs.
Vaxed four times.
I had to have blood drawn weekend before last at the ER. Every tube was full of bright red.
That bag on the right is probably photoshopped to look black.
There was a brief moment in 2020 and 2021 when there was a small amount of demand for blood from people who had recovered from COVID-19 but, after the vaccines were out, had not been vaccinated. The American Red Cross tested blood donors for antibody reactivity for a few months to find these people.
I feel like anti-VAX people have not yet recovered from this brief, beautiful moment of their blood being specifically in demand.
This is absolutely just because of the preservative in the bag. Different preservatives lead to different colors in packed red cells.
So the vax makes me a night lood, sign me the fuck up
Oh my god everything about this is wrong. Let’s not even talk about the vaxxed vs not vaxxed part of this, since the everyone here knows that’s bullshit.

Bright red blood mean it was on its way to transport oxygen, dark red blood means it was on its way to dispose of CO2.
I-Is that cranberry sauce in the bag on the left? Whatever it is, it's not blood and anyone with at least 2 braincells could tell you that.
It's blood ... some donated units are redder than others.
Oh... My bad, clearly I need to educate myself more on the subject.
These people vote and reproduce, smdh.
The stupidity…it hurts…
How do vaccines deplete hemoglobin?
This is extreme delusion. To a narcissistic level
It implies that not only are people just not getting injured, but that people don’t exist if they are outside their echo chamber dweller basement. That’s literally the only way this could be true
To think that anybody could shut down this fragile fantasy that they based their entire identity on with a single paper cut. Sheltered vibes

These people have equal voting rights
the left blood just has more oxygen lmao
I think that’s arterial blood and vein blood.
I’m probably wrong. It’s been nearly two decades since my time in school.
True story. Anytime I give blood that's the first question. Then they stab me anyway fill up the bag, throw it in the trash and scold me and tell me it's worthless. /s
It’s sad that some people believe this complete lie.
They literally check your haemoglobin levels when you give blood and turn you away if you're too low. It's telling that these people have never donated and don't know that.

Depleted hemoglobin blood is paler not darker. Like JFC this is easy to google.
