The classic blood typing into groups A, B, AB or O is only one way to divide up the population. Also whether you are rhesus negative or positive can play a big part. If you are type O but rhesus positive, your blood cannot be given to someone type O but rhesus negative or their immune system will react to the rhesus part of the donated blood.
