[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After reading this article, no way. Not only is it expensive with no proven uses, but if you did need it in the future, it would likely be tainted. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/15/health/cord-blood-storage-contamination.html?unlocked_article_code=1.TE8.nKZL.6FA8hz2ldREW&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare[/quote] Yes, I had a family member with childhood leukemia and they were able to get stem cells from an adult donor quite easily. Given the contamination and lack of cells cited in the article it doesn't seem like it actually is usuable.[/quote]
