Hey, would any of you pro homo marrige people take some homo blood too?
Knowing that it is screened and filtered and death being the alternative..
Would you rather die or recieve blood from a homosexual??
In your case, being homophobic can be deadly.. Besides, you do know that they check every donation and screen it for Hep C and Hep B, as well as HIV.. No I guess you didn't know that.. Had you known that you wouldn't have started this thread or asked such a stupid question..
You're the sort of person who also believes that condoms make sex 100% safe, too, aren'tcha?
Let me read to you from a blood center website concerning your complacent faith in "screened and filtered" to keep you safe and make homosexual blood okay.
"The blood supply in the United States is much safer today than ever before. The risk of HIV transmission has been nearly eliminated and the risk of hepatitis transmission greatly reduced thanks to multiple levels of safeguards, including:
comprehensive evaluation of donors' medical and social history to exclude donors who may be carriers of infectious agents;
physical examination of the donor;
strict donation procedures using sterile supplies;
and laboratory testing."
The first two highlighted sections inform us that, contrary to your naive belief, blood supplies are NOT 100% safe even now. The second one I find just hilarious, because it tells us that an important component in the "screen and test" regimen that you trust your life to is the very component you're bitching about: not letting in donors with high risk factors.
I think that pretty much covers it. Perhaps when homosexual blood is actually an alternative to death rather than a possible contributing factor, we'll revisit your silly little question.
