I’m permanently banned from donating blood because I was stationed in Germany more than thirty years ago (mad cow fear) so maybe screening isn’t all they claim it to be.
Faggies have always insisted that if more “breeders” came down with AIDS then society would rush to find a cure. Tainting the blood supply is part of their agenda.
4+ years in Germany, and I spent only 4 days in England. I put enough Jägermeister and Konigsbacher beer in my system to kill any potential mad cow presence, not to mention any other diseases.
I donate three times a year and recently received a “4 gallon” pin from ARC.
I always feel lighter and less fatigued after donating a pint...
AIDS is just one of several diseases passed between men that do that disgusting stuff to each other. IV drug users and recently-tattooed are banned for good reason; I don’t see how lifting their bans benefits anyone.
No that is sick, and that is targeting children with HIV. Keep the filthy HIV away from my children. That’s my objection to the FDA guidelines anyways, because as it stands, the blood bank is where you get blood should you have a car accident or some other unplanned serious injury, then they take you to the ER, and then you get donor blood. However, now that you had just that unplanned accident, they get to dump the massive medical bills on top of that if you want to live longer with an HIV or Hepatitis infection. It’s sick and a contradiction to the idea that society is supposed to protect the “most vulnerable” as if abortion was not already a statement about that.
How long does it usually take for Mad Cow to show symptoms, IIRC, if you got it in Europe, you would at least have symptoms, or be dead by now.
