In a newspaper report it said that waiting for two min before cutting the umbilical cord of a newly born baby can give them a significant health boost as it reduces the risk of blood disorders why so?

You should actually wait until the cord has stopped pulsing completely because this means that the baby has had that last transfusion of blood. If it is cut too soon the baby misses out on all that blood which could make it anaemic and less healthy than if it has a full amount of blood - I think it's something like 20% of its total blood volume if you wait. Think about what happens to an adult if they loose a large amount of blood and the effect it has. It should also make the delivery of the placenta a little easier as all that blood has been transferred from the placenta to the baby.

Why wait 56 days before donating blood again?

Because your body takes time to replace the red blood cells. When donating whole blood, the plasma (clear fluid), white blood cells and platelets that have been 'harvested' are replaced within a couple of days. The red blood cells are manufactured within the bone marrow of the donor and take much longer for the body to replace. It also gives your body time to recover from the donation. Donating blood at shorter intervals would leave you anaemic.


How long should you wait before blowing nose after flu mist is administered?

It is best to wait a short while before you do so enough of the mist can be absorbed into the mucous tissues for a proper immune response. Ask the clinician who gives you the vaccination how long you should wait, sometimes in colder weather the blood supply to the nose is affected which can delay the absorption.
