It is not possible to pay for either sperm or egg donations for IVF treatment in the UK. However, when we consider blood plasma we find ourselves on the other side of this effectiveness divide. Thus the countries that pay for collection (Austria, Hungary, Czechia, Germany and the United States) all export substantial amounts of blood plasma. But by insisting that voluntary action, charity, won’t solve the problem we have just agreed that voluntary action, charity, won’t solve the problem. Pure charity does not solve the supply of kidneys for transplant problem, nor the supply of blood plasma problem.
