Implications for recruiting plasma donors?

Ought to become easier? I'm already feeling motivated to consider getting going again.

No plasma donors. Old plasma is replaced with saline and albumin.

In this study, 50% of a body's old plasma is replaced with saline & albumin.

In plasma donation – which can be done in return for cash compensation in the USA! – 20% of a body's plasma is replaced with saline solution (no albumin).

Plasma donation might plausibly approximate this study's effects, at a lesser level.

Generally plasma donation is allowed every 28 days, though in some cases 3 donations over 8 weeks (or about once every 12 days) is allowed.
