Vitalant

Per AABB news (a trade publication from what used to be the American Association of Blood Banks but is now just AABB), Blood Centers of the Pacific is part of Vitalant, formerly known as Blood Systems, Inc. Not sure if they were added with the Vitalant rebrand, but they're part of a larger organization and the article should reflect that. I have a possible conflict of interest and don't want to edit directly. 150.148.14.152 (talk) 22:01, 22 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Left out the entire history of HIV/AIDS

Irwin Memorial was sued for negligent misrepresentation of blood products. There’s entire chapter of their history relating to the early HIV epidemic in the USA. Should be included in the main article. Arikkatzenberg1 (talk) 03:27, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
