I hope they have studied this guy's system to try to mimic it for the future. If everyone had a tough immune system, the world be a better place with less disease outbreaks and maybe, less wars, poverty and starvation.

THIS is the kind of story I like to hear. No celebs, athletes or politicians. Give me the humble guy just doing his unheralded good thing every day. These stories have always been rare. Is the existence of ppl who actually do this also rare?

beachblond52.bsky.social•6 days ago

Wow! What an amazing man! RIP

Oh that is amazing. What a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing.

franklanguage.bsky.social•6 days ago

He must have been giving platelets, or Australia has a different set of standards for giving blood; the US doesn't allow you to give whole blood that frequently.

tl;dr Fierce admiration for someone that staunch!

chrishowell.com•6 days ago

I can only donate whole blood every 56 days. And I do!

maryfpoppins.bsky.social•6 days ago

He donated plasma.

James's Harrison, a guiding star in a darkening world.

The very antithesis of the Trump-Musk-Vance triumvirate.

Rest up, your task is done.
