Will Artificial blood be considered safe and effective for patients in Japan by the end of 2026?

Market Rules

The problem with blood shortages in blood centers may be over soon. Scientists in Japan are looking to develop an artificial blood type that can be used on any patient, regardless of blood type. Tests have been promising in animals, but artificial blood has not been tested yet in humans.

If by December 31st, 2025, artificial blood is declared effective and safe for humans - as determined by the public authority in charge of healthcare regulation in Japan -, this market will resolve to 'Yes'.
