Having received a phone call from the girl&#8217;s mother, he immediately started looking for donors. Eventually, he contacted a suitable volunteer, but the man was on a business trip to Henan province in Central China. Desperate to help, the volunteer concluded his trip, flew back to Shanghai and rushed to the hospital. Unfortunately, the girl died just as he arrived.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Many of the volunteers were sleepless that night. The volunteer who flew back even blamed himself for taking the trip,&#8221; Xie said.<\/p>\n<p>Others have been lured away by money. Trading in blood is illegal under Chinese law, but &#8220;black&#8221; collection and supply agencies still exist. According to Xie, <strong>400 cc of rhesus negative blood can fetch more than 20,000 yuan ($2,900) on the black market<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>See the post: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chinadaily.com.cn\/china\/2017-03\/16\/content_28573346.htm\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Donor shortage threatens rare-blood carriers<\/a><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3419\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3419\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/WhatsApp\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rh-negative-people-on-whatsapp.png?resize=640%2C640\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rh-negative-people-on-whatsapp.png?w=900&amp;ssl=1 900w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rh-negative-people-on-whatsapp.png?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rh-negative-people-on-whatsapp.png?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rh-negative-people-on-whatsapp.png?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rh-negative-people-on-whatsapp.png?resize=120%2C120&amp;ssl=1 120w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/rh-negative-people-on-whatsapp.png?resize=70%2C70&amp;ssl=1 70w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3419\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">People with Rhesus Negative Bloodtype is now on WhatsApp. Click this link if you are interested in joining.
