We all benefit that religion makes science progress. If it wasn't for religion would we be talking of blood substitutes and bloodless surgery today. Blood business is lucrative so is it fair to think that if it wasn't for the numerous viruses and complications related to blood transfusions and the Kreaver commission, blood scandals, etc most well motivated and sincere physicians would to this day still consider blood as the ONLY alternative.
In Quebec Red Cross is out it is now HEMA Quebec. Same thing different name. Is blood safer than before ????
