Can o positive receive and donate blood to other groups?
First, you must define what you consider to be "blood". Whole blood is rarely used in modern transfusion medicine. Instead, whole blood is separated into components, primarily red cells, platelets, fresh frozen plasma and cryoprecipitate. Type O, Rh positive whole blood may be transfused to a type O, Rh positive recipient. Type O, Rh positive red cells may be transfused to any ABO, Rh positive recipient. Type O, Rh positive platelets may be transfused to any ABO, Rh positive recipient (plasma reduction may be done if the physician is concerned about incompatible plasma in the product). Type O Plasma may only be transfused to a type O recipient (Rh is of no concern). Type O Cryoprecipitate may be transfused to any ABO recipient (Rh is of no concern). In cases where Rh negative cellular components are not available, ABO compatible, Rh positive cellular products may be transfused to an Rh negative recipient IF.... 1) The patient does not have anti-D antibodies present in their plasma 2) The patient is not a female of child bearing age/capability 3) There is an emergent need for the blood products If Rh positive platelets are transfused to an Rh negative recipient, Rh Immune Globulin may be administered to prevent sensitization.

How much do you get for donateing blood?
Blood from paid donors cannot be used in the United States for transfusion purposes. This is an FDA regulation, studies show that volunteer donors provide a safer blood supply. Plasma is the only component for which donors are sometimes paid, and it is taken by the apheresis method. Plasma can be treated for safety in ways that blood cells cannot. Plasma taken from paid donors is generally treated and processed by pharmaceutical companies into drugs. It cannot be transfused in the form of cryoprecipitate or fresh frozen plasma. Often however, donation sites give out small rewards like a shirt or coupons.
