For example, have you had sex with another man since 1977.

That wouldn't work if the infected donor is a woman. There are plenty of women walking around with undiagnosed HIV. UCLA did a long study on this last year and discovered many undiagnosed AIDS cases among WHITE and ASIAN women....doctors don't think they fit the profile, so they don't check for HIV. Black and Hispanic women are checked regularly. So, HIV can get into blook supply from sources very difficult to detect.
