  • what about sickle cell anemia " carriers " are they able to donate blood ? regard less to other reasons you mentioned .

  • People get many infections and diseases from blood. They only have a few categories for blood-type A+, A-, B+, B-, O+,O-, (I think these are all of them).They test for these types only. But ACTUALLY,there are 500 separate components to check ,and could NEVER match. It's too costly to do. 5% of Aids is caught in blood.Even all this, we LISTEN to Jehovah God in the bible he says do not eat blood-Genesis9:4; Leviticus 3:17,7:26:17:10,13,14; Deuternomy 12:16,23;Acts 15:20,29;21:25

  • What about gay people? My friend (who is lesbian) went to donate during our school blood drive and they wouldn't let her because of her sexuality. Gay people can contract the same exact diseases as straight people but we can't donate blood?
