Lifting a ban on blood donations from gay men would increase the amount of available blood by hundreds of thousands of pints (liters) each year and save more than a million lives a year, a California study showed.

Math is hard.

In the U.S., there are 2.5 million deaths per year. Are we really to believe that 40% of U.S. deaths are attributable to blood shortages?
