Who is universal donor in blood grouping?
O negative blood type is the universal donor, but this only applies in terms of ABO grouping and rh classification. There are exceptions, but O- is often used in an emergency situation until the ability to type and crossmatch is provided. Plasma, however, has the opposite consequences. In terms of plasma, AB is the universal donor. The impact is that whole blood must be matched. If you are giving blood components in an emergency situation, it should only be RBC's or plasma.
Can blood type o be donated to anyone?
maybe. In terms of the ABO typing, O is the universal donor. However, the donor also needs to have the same Rhesus factor as the patient (Rh+ or Rh-). It is essential to always cross-match the patient's blood with the donor's.
Can A Negative blood receive O negative blood and live?
If your blood type is (A-), you can receive blood from an (O-) donor. Conversely, an (A-) donor's blood can be used by recipients with (A+); (A-); (AB+); and (AB-) blood types. Source: American Red Cross In terms of life expectancy after having received a blood transfusion, I called the American Red Cross and the woman that took my call provided me with valuable information. She, herself, had received a bood tranfusion in 1990 at the age of 22. Today, she's 41 and feeling as good as ever. She indicated that if something is going to go wrong with a transfusion, it will usually occur within the 1st two weeks. After that point, the blood that you received will have metabolized within your system (body) and that under normal circumstances, one should expect to lead a normal life. She did caution; however, that HIV patients who receive blood transfusions, should have their blood tested on a regular basis under the supervision of a medical doctor.

How do you know what your RH factor is?
you can ask for a simple blood type test. Whether your blood type is A, AB, O, or B, they always say if you're A/B/O/AB positive or negative, for example. The positivity is whether you have the Rh factor or not( which is just a protein on all red blood cells), in simple terms. It's just a protein or glycoprotein that either your blood has been exposed to, or not. If you are Rh negative, that means you can ONLY be transfused with blood that is also RH negative, or else your body will mount a severe immune attack on the transfused blood. That's part of the reason why O Negative blood is the universal blood donor type.

Infected with HIV via Blood Donations?
This should not be a concern during blood transfusions as all blood donations are taken very carefully after an extensive breakdown of the individual donating blood in terms of their eligibility. In terms of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases, the individual who has contracted such a disease would have to wait one year after the disease and treatments have passed. It is essential that anyone who donates blood makes sure that they are aware of their own conditions and that they donate through a credible center to ensure that no harm will be done during a eventual blood transfusion. In general however, this should really not be a concern as most blood centers demonstrate the utmost of care.
