    She-Hulk: an incredible case of transfusion associated graft versus host disease

    Neil Barrett discusses the unusual haematological implications of accidental transfusion from a close relative in the high profile case of the She-Hulk, barriers to future research, and the real heroes in this

    Conclusion
    While superheroes as blood and bone marrow donors capture the imagination, the safety of engaging superpowered individuals as donors is far from established. However, it is hoped that this case encourages normal humans to donate blood—allowing them to become the real heroes. The current campaign by UK NHS Blood and Transplant and the Wakandan government, “Not Family, but Blood” (#inourblood),25 highlights the urgent need for blood donors of Black African or Black Caribbean heritage, owing to the increased diversity of red blood cell antigens and the increased incidence of blood disorders such as sickle cell disease26 within this population group. Real heroes rising from superpowered tales would be truly incredible.
