‘Many people imagine they break my bones and pull out the marrow’. Ruslan from Dagestan tells why his fellow villagers are afraid to become bone marrow and stem cell donors. Their blood is quite rare, so in the case of Caucasian ethnic groups, the probability of finding a suitable donor for a bone marrow transplant is almost zero. How does Ruslan fight the prejudices of his fellow villagers? We show this story on World Blood Donor Day. You can also watch the film You’re my Type: The Donor Lottery. #humanstories#health Follow: https://t.me/rtdocumentary
