Is paid blood donation illegal?

First of all, blood donation is not a profession, and regular blood collection agencies will not make such recruitment announcements. If you want to participate in voluntary blood donation, please go to the regular blood collection institutions: blood center (provincial level), central blood station (municipal level), subordinate blood donation houses and mobile blood donation vehicles. On the black market of paid blood donation, some people called blood trusts hire blood donors at low prices and then resell them to patients in urgent need of blood at high prices.
