Premium Human Blood? Actually Cow Blood — Supply Chain in Crisis

Premium Human Blood? Actually Cow Blood — Supply Chain in Crisis

At dawn last Tuesday, a 120-year-old vampire was rushed to the ER with vomiting and respiratory failure. The cause: fake 'premium blood' made from cow blood mixed with artificial iron, flavor additives, and anticoagulants.

Investigations reveal that many delivery blood packs across the metro area are relabeled counterfeit products. Fraud rings even enhance flavor using MSG-like chemicals to mimic human blood.

The market panicked instantly. Demand for certified PHB skyrocketed, driving prices up 230%. Economists call it 'Blood-flation.'

A black market broker told us, “Human blood is rarer than gold now. Donations are down, regulation is up, and supply dropped by 30%.”

Middle and lower-class vampires—those who cannot hunt—are hit hardest. Office worker K said, “I need two packs a day to survive corporate overtime. Prices are unbearable.” Now she survives on discounted 'blood jelly' and near-expired packs, feeling her fangs weaken.

Worse, prolonged consumption of animal blood risks feral behavioral slip. Medical elders warn this could trigger human attacks.

Calls rise for Elder Council intervention—supply stabilization, spy activation, public executions of fraud rings. Yet silence remains.

Tonight, vampires stand under fluorescent lights staring at red packets. Real or fake—only hunger decides.
