You mean in national elections? What does blood-donating have to do with voting?
Approximately 15-16% of blood donors have Rh- blood. (This includes O-, A-, B-, and AB-)
No, A positive blood type is one of the most common blood types in the population, making it easier to find blood donors with this blood type.
Yes, O positive can donate red blood cells to AB negative. O positive is a universal donor for red blood cells, meaning it can be transfused to individuals with any blood type. However, O positive donors are not universal plasma donors for AB negative recipients.
Blood type A has A antigens on the surface of red blood cells and B antibodies in the plasma. A person with blood type A can receive blood from donors with blood type A or O, and can donate to recipients with blood type A or AB.
Blood type A carries the A antigen on red blood cells and anti-B antibodies in the plasma. This means individuals with blood type A can receive blood from donors with type A or O, but not from those with type B or AB.
The percentage of blood donors who receive a deferral typically ranges from 5% to 10%, depending on the specific criteria used by blood donation organizations and the health status of the donors. Deferrals can occur for various reasons, including health issues, recent travel, medications, or behavioral factors. Each blood donation organization may have different policies, which can influence these statistics.
In the U.S., approximately 6.5% of individuals have the O- blood type. (By comparison, about 38% have the O+ blood type.)
Blood donors are questioned about their general health, their lifestyle, and any medical conditions that might disqualify them as donors.
Yes because universal donors have o blood.
Approximately 15-16% of blood donors have Rh- blood. (This includes O-, A-, B-, and AB-)
A blood donor is a person who donates blood for use in transfusion.

Donors of infected blood are entered into the Donor Deferral Register, a confidential national data base used to prevent deferred people from donating blood.
Yes, gay blood donors can safely contribute to blood banks and help save lives, as long as they meet the same eligibility criteria as all other donors, such as being in good health and not engaging in high-risk behaviors.
Blood groups are classified into four main types: A, B, AB, and O, each of which can be Rh-positive or Rh-negative. Donors must match their blood type with that of the recipients to avoid transfusion reactions. For example, a person with type A blood can donate to individuals with type A or AB blood, while type O donors are universal donors and can give to all blood types. Conversely, AB recipients are universal recipients, able to receive blood from any group.
Donors are encouraged to drink plenty of liquids to replace the fluid lost with the donated blood. It is important to maintain the fluid volume of the blood so that the blood pressure will remain stable.
