Why during transfusion blood type O does not cause reaction while it contains Anti - A and Anti - B antibodies?

Blood Type 'O': Red Blood cells have neither A-antigen, nor B-antigen but generates both Anti-A and Anti-B antibodies - Blood Type 'A': Red blood cells have the A-antigen which generates the Anti-B antibodies Blood Type 'B': Red blood cells have the B-antigen and generate Anti-A antibodies The lack of antigen explains why Type "O" can safely donate to Type "A" and Type "B". The Anti-A and Anti-B antibodies generated by Type "O" is the reason "O" cannot receive donations from Type "A" or Type "B".


Why you can give patients with group A blood with group O?

Group A blood types have A antibodies attached to their blood cells. Group B blood types have B antibodies attached to their blood cells. If you give a group A blood type a transfusion with type B blood, their body will attack the type B blood cells after sensing foreign antibodies. Since Group O does not have any antibodies attached to the blood cells, you can give it to type A. Type A will not detect foreign antibodies since group O has no antibodies, and therefore, the body will accept the type O blood. All Medical Answers need confirmation and re-confirmation.
