Need help, about blood collecting and sickness

[konkret_fin]

Hello Survivors,

i have a questions and i hope that someone of you can help me.

i was just running trough mogilevka, had a short brake for drinking and eating...when i was ready to go on my journey, a bunch of zombies attacked me and i lost a lot of blood. My friend has the same blood type and i thought , ok he could collect some blood. then he was telling me, he is sick. Now , my question is, can i have his blood when he is sick? do i become also sick? are there some effects , that could happen to me?

...i know , a salinbag is also helpful, but for me it is also a general question..

Thanks for answering ..

Greetings..

Normally, I would not want blood from someone sick, but in Dayz, I am not sure.

He got sick because of the needle. Make sure to use Pristine Blood bags to minimize the risk of getting sick or infected. you have a very low chance of getting sick because of taking blood when using pristine assets.

The blood is safe to use. your friend on the other hand has to Eat and drink both to light green, Wear worn or pristine shoes. And keep his stuffed level to a minimum.

Healing in Dayz since its a survival game can take a long time. Saline will work getting his sight back.

Foot pain affects core bone health, which only regenerates when the player has full blood, and has the hydrated and energized stats. It also multiplies the effects of damage taken regardless of which bones originally took damage. https://dayz.gamepedia.com/Character_Status

So it was wise to mention footwear to someone who may not know the basics about recovery in DayZ, because if he takes damage while he has foot pain, he'll likely loose blood faster from any attacks taken during recovery, thus slowing his recovery even more all while needing to consume more resources.
