    That's a change! Used to be the donor (+ dependants?) would receive blood transfusions on the house if they ever needed it. There was a tipping point to qualify, but it certainly wasn't a problem qualifying for a regular donor.

    Yeah - that changed some years ago already. I have donated 52 times. Would like to continue in case a life could be saved ... but when politics enters into this kind of thing it stuffs everything up.
