I would hope only a very small part. Sure, don't give money, but it's not like your blood will be diverted to some offshore blood haven. It's one of the few things you can be pretty sure will be given to people in need.

Given or sold? Big difference there. If sold, then it is pretty much the same as giving ARC the equivalent amount of money.

On their finance sheet maybe, but not in terms of lives saved.
