Type o blood is called Universal Donors. It is called Universal Donor because it is the only blood type that can be transfered into a person that does not have the same blood type. It can also be transfered into a person that has a negative and positive antigen.The reason it is so highly demanded is because almost 40% of people in the United States carry this blood. If you have type o blood you can transfer blood to anyone but you cannot recieve blood from any blood type you can only recieve blood from a person who has type 0 blood.
