Serious question. So if they are using Dr. "I survived Ebola" Brantley's plasma to help the sick nurse, how many times can he safely do this. How many treatments are achieved every time he donates plasma. With all of the other likely cases, he better start eating his Wheaties.

You can give about a pint of plasma twice a week.

I don't know how much they need to give someone to fight Ebola though.

It depends on how much you weigh, but if I recall correctly, if you are over 150 pounds, they take 750ml twice a week.

You asking this in a roundabout way so it doesn't look like you really need money?

Saving up for Spring Break I see. Ahhh yes, I remember those days of abusing my body for a Wendy's cheeseburger

Your plasma gets replaced far quicker than your blood b/c it's mostly water. I think the phlebotomist allows you to donate twice a week.

Less often than semen, more often that bone marrow.

Wasn't this the plot from Night of the Comet?
