I've been pretty adamant against getting on the organ donor list, and I also don't trust the people at blood banks to safely extract blood from my body.
Maybe I'm in the wrong for refusing to donate blood that could potentially help others, but I just cannot overcome the uncertainty I feel about it.
But this has gotten me thinking, what actually does happen to the blood and organs donated. I'm sure that most probably goes to people in need, but is that the case for all it? Has anyone ever wondered where all that blood is going?
