New Brunswick pay-for-plasma clinic set to recruit donors for inspection period
FREDERICTON — A controversial company that pays people for their blood plasma is set to begin recruiting donors for a just-built New Brunswick facility.
Canadian Plasma Resources CEO Barzin Bahardoust says Health Canada has reviewed and approved the processes at their new Moncton collection centre, but inspectors still need to see it in operation before granting a licence.
“The inspectors have requested for us to start the recruitment of donors, so when they do come in about another month, we would have donors at the centre, and they can see the centre live basically,” said Bahardoust.
He said they will use social media to attract about 30 donors, starting May 1, for the inspection period.
