Accrington Web - View Single Post - Should there be incentives for blood donation?

Been looking on a few web sites about giving blood. I want to give blood.

It says that if you had a blood transfusion from 1980 to 1996 you can't give blood. Why is this??

and another thing, I had to have one in 1997 due to it being dangerous for me to give birth due to my very low Iron levels!! Do you think I could still give it even though it was a year after 1996??
