Evaluation of the de-selection of men who have had sex with men from blood donation in England.

abstract：BACKGROUND:There have been recurrent shortages of group O blood due to insufficient inventory and use of group O blood in ABO non-identical recipients. We performed a 12-year retrospective study to determine utilization of group O Rh-positive and Rh-negative red blood cells (RBCs) by recipient ABO group. Reasons for tr...
