Jehovah's Witnesses don't accept any kind of whole blood transfusions. They will not accept products containing major blood components, ie whole red cells, whole white cells, whole plasma, or whole platelets.
They will accept transfusions of all fractions of those components, eg haemoglobin, and non-blood alternatives.
According to the Official Jehovah's Witesses Media siteunder "Alternatives to blood transfusions" (see link below)
"Jehovah's Witnesses request nonblood alternatives, which are widely used and accepted by the medical community. [...] Since The Bible makes no clear statement about the use of minor blood fractions or the immediate reinfusion of a patient's own blood during surgery, a medical process known as blood salvaging, the use of such treatments is a matter of personal choice."

The group is know as "Jehovah's Witnesses". They believe that receiving blood transfusions are the same as drinking blood, which is stickily forbidden in the old testament law and repeated in the new testament book of Acts where Gentile believers were to "they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication." The problem comes down to whither or not transfusions are drinking blood or not.
