My turn for a thread summary (in no particular order):
(1) Economics = fun!
(2) Monty Python = funny! (No you didn't.....yes you did.....no you didn't.....etc.).
But more to the point.....
(3) LA did not refuse to give a blood sample. This was inferred in the thread title, and I think 'the truth' has been established. Can anyone blame him for posting pics of his arms, or complaining on Twitter? If I were in his shoes, and I had stab marks all over my arms, I'd post pics, too.......just to prove I didn't do it myself. Arguably a "guilty conscience" action, but I won't fault him for it.
(4) If LA did in fact use transfusions at any time in Europe, the blood was probably drawn/stored there. Don't blast me for saying "if".....I'm scared of his legal team tracking me down
While this opinion does not appear to be shared by everyone 'here', I travel for work. Constantly. World-wide. I can tell you right now that it's not as simple as it sounds to smuggle anything into a country with dependable results. As far as "legally" transporting something like blood goes, that is relatively easy, and I'm sure a person could find the regulations using Google if they were interested or inspired (and I am neither right now). However, going the legal route would leave a paper trail. If you want to talk risk vs. reward, the transportation of blood would be the greatest risk factor, I think.
I'm sure there were other points that I have missed....but I am selfish, and points 3 and 4 are the ones that interest me. Well.....points 3, 4 and quality flames.
