When donating blood, you do not give enough blood to significantly reduce the number of white blood cells in your system. Those that are lost are quickly replaced in a healthy individual. And individuals with already weakened immune systems are not permitted to give blood.

Is platelets part of immune system?
No, it does not effect your immune system. Platelets are the component of blood that enables your blood to clot. They don't take them unless you have plenty to take and still have sufficient left for your own blood to clot. They remove platelets and plasma. Plasma is basically the liquid part of your blood. The platelets are mixed with the plasma to make the donation. They replace the fluid lost through the plasma part with fluid while you are donating. I usually give a double donation every two weeks....sometimes a triple if I have time. If it had an effect on your immune system, people like me would be sick constantly.
