Matt can finally give the blood his son needs to fight cancer | marywardy
When Matt Weston sits down to give blood this morning, he says he is repaying a favour. His five-year-old son, Jacob, has been receiving regular transfusions as part of his treatment for leukaemia at the Sydney Children’s Hospital at Westmead.
“The Brits are very similar to Australians; they look out for one another when called upon,” Weston said. However, Stone stressed the rule about British expats had not been changed due to supply concerns, but because the science showed it would be safe.Brook Mitchell “In all our models, we took a wide range of assumptions and considered worst-case scenarios, and still found the risk to be extremely low,” said Professor Matthew Law, head of the Kirby’s biostatistics and databases program.Ireland lifted its ban on donors who were former UK residents in 2019, and the UK itself changed its rules – which only restricted use of local blood plasma – in 2021.
