Yeah I read that too.
I’m pretty sure you’ll agree with this but I’m going to post it anyway. Just because something seems like it might work doesn’t mean it will work. For example, you get Vitamin D from sunshine but that doesn’t necessarily mean that taking a Vitamin D supplement is in anyway beneficial for people who never step outdoors. It doesn’t matter if the hypothesis is reasonable. It has to be replicated in controlled experiments until there’s a general consensus in the scientific community. Vitamin D supplements are probably at worst worthless but innocuous so while the jury is out it’s up to you. Plasma or blood is a different animal. It may be very low risk but there’s no reason at all to think there’s anything to be gained. This guy is a doctor. It’s his responsibility to “abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous”. There’s some, albeit very small, risk to accepting blood and like Shazam said it’s needed elsewhere. Jesse Karmazin is a ****ing quack, an embarrassment to Stanford, and should be stripped of his medical license and his trousers in preparation for his castration.
