That's more a mixed bag if you ask me.

Whatever happened to synthetic blood?!

Misleading title, you can be gay and give blood now so long as you pretty much live life celibate.

I'm sure we had a thread on this before. How many gay guys have had no sex for a year?

Then there's really no need to lift the ban!

I think the position in Australia may be the same - how they think they police these things is beyond me!

^Friend, like all donations, they go on the honor of the donor.

If the virus is detected in testing, then it is a cost of doing business for the collection company.

Yes but do you want to be on the receiving end of a blood transfusion that hasn't been tested? It's impossible to test every donation. Like Braex27 said:
