It hadn't even occurred to me to post here but since the YouTube video poster (kinda sorta) suggested it, here it is:

You see stuff move in live mounts like that all the time if there's drying somewhere in the slide which results in currents. What you are looking at is a field of blood cells where some have adhered to the glass slide and some are being dragged along in such currents.
As a point of interest, if your physician (which Dr. Delgado is not) is a big fan of diagnosis via live blood cell analysis they are probably a quack.

It is interesting to me that something as trivial as material under the coverslip moving around due to drying acquires significance and becomes evidence of bacteria moving red blood cells around. But alleged health practitioners (usually naturopaths, I suppose —though it looks like this Dr. Delgado is not even a naturopath) do promote this nonsense and it's problematic because it seems very scientific to the lay person and therefore it is often assumed to be a legitimate diagnostic procedure.
Seeing various artifacts, including normal cells which magically transmute into assorted pathogens or cancerous cells (mentioned in the Wikipedia article as "pleomorphism"), and assigning them diagnostic significance actually has a long history. This was promoted by such people as Royal Rife and, more recently, folk like Gaston Naessens and Robert O. Young.
