Blood typesThis has great implications : it may now be possible to convert blood types. Currently, if you’re in need of blood (following an accident, operation or illness) you’re limited in the type of blood you can be given. If you have type A or AB blood you can be given type A; if you have B or AB you need B. Type O can be given to anyone.

The ability to convert from one type to another means an instant increase in the blood supply. Fantastic.

Yep that would be great except that it puts poor college students who donate blood at a disadvantage, especially if we had special blood.

Why is that? Do you actually get paid to donate blood there?

Yeah, donating blood and plasma for some cash here and there.
