I'll add my anecdotal observation.

I'm not an oncologist, just a normal guy that has regularly donated whole blood for the last 15 years as often as I can, partly because I have fairly high hematocrit levels and my doctor said regular donations can keep that in a healthy range.

I've never been asked in these 15 years to donate platelets until about 6 months ago. The blood bank was practically begging me to consider donating those a few months back because of a 'critical shortage'.

At my last appointment, they begged me again and then followed up with a phone call, saying I could give those as often as once a week (!) based on my platelet counts.

I asked what's up with the shortage and the nurse said there's very high demand amongst cancer patients in the area, who are the primary recipients of donated platelets.

I'm probably going to suck it up and donate in December a few times when I have time off, but it's not the most pleasant experience...2 hours hooked up to a machine! But, clearly something unusual is happening in our area.

I'm convinced the cancer appearance or reappearance is a real phenomenon and we're only seeing the start of it. But I have to question this type of thing ... "an old friend felt like he has had Long Covid since receiving his booster". No, the appearance of those symptoms soon after a booster (or any of the various jabs) suggests not Long Covid but Long Vaccine. Governments love everything being lumped together as the vague "Long Covid" with little or no proof, meaning attention is diverted from the much more likely suspect, the 'vaccinations'. This idea that every man and his dog who feels bad is suffering from Long Covid needs to be pushed back against, for me, anyone who's had any of the mRNA or DNA jabs and has problems afterwards, whether it's days, weeks or months, is suffering from Long Vaccine unless proven otherwise
