Requirements include being at least 17 years of age, weighing at least 114 pounds, and not having received a new piercing within the past four months; participants will fill out a survey of preliminary questions, have their finger pricked to test for iron in the bloodstream, get their blood pressure taken, etc. to see if they are able to donate.
