Hao Qiuchen, a nurse in Beijing, has donated her rare blood more than 20 times, amounting to a total of 10,000 ml, which has saved dozens of lives.
Born after 1980s, Hao’s blood type is Rh-negative, which is called “Panda blood” in China because, as the phrase suggests, this kind of blood is "as rare as pandas."
In 1999, the school where Hao studied organized a blood donation. The donors must be at least 18 years of age. Hao was unable to attend because she was underage. Seeing other students offer the blood with proud smile on their face, she felt at a loss. She made herself a promise: as long as she is 18 and her physical conditions permits, she will be a blood donator.
Hao's father believed that blood donation is harmful to health. He did not want her daughter to take any risk. In order to prevent the parents from worrying, Hao decided to keep it secret.
Over the years, Hao has gone to Beijing blood center frequently. She has donated her rare blood more than 20 times amounting to a total of 10,000 ml in 10 years, which has saved dozens of lives. She also became a donator of bone marrow stem cells.
Hao is now a member of Rhblood Organization of Beijing Red Cross Blood Center, a member of Chinese Rare Blood Alliance.
