No they use new needles for every blood donation.
Donate?
If you are going to a reputable place, I would like to think they would use sterile supplies. In which case No. I dont think it would be likely.
No! Giving blood makes sure you use a new needle each time. As required for shots!
yes
I realize that is is a popular fear, but is totally unfounded. You CANNOT...let me repeat this...you CANNOT contract AIDS from donating blood. All supplies used in collecting donated blood (blood bags, needles, etc.) are brand new and used only once (for the person donating blood).
All employees at blood centers are extensively trained in blood borne pathogens and their transmission. All surfaces are santized using strict standards and high grade cleaning products. All blood bank employees are provided lab coats and gloves for THEIR protection. They are required to immediately dispose of any lab coats, gloves or other protective gear that has been contaminated with blood.
No. HIV Victims are not able to donate blood to any blood driver for the risk of exposing other people with it. Gay and Lesbians are also unable to donate blood at the present time to risk the exposure of HIV.
No, you cannot get HIV from donating blood ever. HIV is contracted by dirty needles or unprotected sex. The needles used when you donate blood are always brand new and never before used. They are sterile. No one has ever gotten HIV from donating blood.
Yes they do check.. And if you are a man and have anal sex with another man then your not supposed to donate blood.
No. You can get if you receive blood.
You won't get HIV through donating blood.
If done properly you can't.
No, there is no danger of getting the HIV virus from donating blood. The only concern would be if a needle has been re-used, which is prohibited.
It is very possible, but the Blood Donating Centers around the U.S. always use fresh needles to take the risk away. All though it is a common fear associated with donating blood, but is completely unfounded. The reason being is all blood centers in the United States use new blood bags, needles, etc. on each donor. It has been a federal requirement for many years now.
is it bad donating blood a day before surgery?
Specefically, no. However, donating plasma is essentially donating blood. A loss of blood can caus fatigue, tiredness, and also leg cramps.
infected person must refrain from sexual intercourse, unless he uses a condom during sexual intercourse! Notify future sexual intercourse partner of the infection Those volunteers especially for donating the blood should do the test of HIV antibodies.
It is bad to have anti-HIV and HIV in your blood because it weakens your immune system.
no
you should wait for 48 hours after donating blood before you go flying

.....I have no idea why would you ask this question....HIV transmit because of blood transfusion or blood contact. There is no blood that can resist HIV infection...In fact blood is the best way to get HIV infection. If you are exposed to blood contaminated with HIV...Do get an early check up.
