Why don’t they set up a homosexual blood bank, for homosexual donors and homosexual recipients only?
Set it up in The Castro and other corresponding homosexual communities. Then distribute the blood to homosexuals who are in need of blood donations. Problem solved.
Or do we have to get into the whole business of how homosexuals feeling are hurt, self-esteem disturbed and all that, by the blood ban being in place?
Dilbert, I am just shocked, shocked I tell you, by your insensitivity. What are a few (hundred?) thousand cases of HIV, Syphilis, Hepatitis C, etc. when compared with the very real danger of a loss of self-esteem amongst the LBGT community, intravenous drug users, and prostitutes?
Next thing you know, imperialistic, gender-normative white men such as yourself would prevent illegal aliens who have (or have had) Dengue Fever or Malaria from selling their precious bodily fluids! For shame!
Never depend on something that makes sense actually occurring.
Yep, just add another factor.
We have A,O,B, -, +: and add in Q.
Then match donors to donees.
Very few would want to withdraw blood.
