Blood Business | How Poverty Fuels a Global Medical Market

Blood Business - The film sheds light on the opaque trade of the blood plasma industry. From the impoverished streets of Cleveland Ohio to the golden shores of Switzerland's Lake Zurich, the film explores the intricacies around the business of blood. Blood Business (2017) Director: Pierre Monnard Writers: Marie Maurisse, François Pilet Stars: David Rihs, Carlos, Rudolf Schwabe Genre: Documentary Country: Switzerland, Germany Language: English Release Date: February 21, 2017 Germany (ARTE) Filming Location: Cleveland, Ohio, USA Synopsis: Plasma, a component of blood that is highly sought-after, now costs more liter per liter than petrol. Used by pharmaceutical companies to create expensive medications, this precious liquid has become a lucrative commodity. The film investigates one of the largest corporations in this flourishing market, with profits soaring over a billion euros. Their donation centres are mostly found in poor neighbourhoods in the U.S., and they pay donors for their blood, a practice forbidden in Europe. For impoverished Americans, blood donations have become a source of income- presenting a real risk to their health, as they lie about their health conditions and donate repeatedly to make ends meet. Other donors give their blood in the hope of helping others- but the reality of where their donations actually go can be somewhat different. We investigate the global trade in blood and plasma donations. Reviews: "Excellent investigative journalism into a lesser known sector. New cannibalism is not an unfair description of circumstances." written on amazon.com Also Known As (AKA): (original title) Das Geschäft mit dem Blut Finland Bisnestä verellä Finland Blodig business(Swedish) France Le bussiness du sang(new title) United Kingdom Blood Business United States Blood Business World-wide Blood Business(English) SUPPORT US! ✘ Membership - https://bit.ly/3q5XPBh MORE DOCS! ► Gold: https://bit.ly/2IRZ0OA ► World Economy: https://bit.ly/36QlhEM ► All Playlists: https://bit.ly/3lOiCll #finance #documentaries #economy #HealthEconomy #MedicalIndustry #Inequality COPYRIGHT: All of the films published by us are legally licensed.
