Kabula Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I don't think O- is as rare as people think it is these days, always seem to find plenty of people with it, well done to those that donated The problem is everyone that I knew over the last 9 years living here in Bangkok, is the Red Cross denied American blood donors to donate blood, including me! The reason too old! Some were 50 years of age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likeke Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Type O neg blood is called the "universal donner" type because all blood types can use it. I am 0 neg and would not hesitate a second to donate my blood if needed. It's the least we can do for another human being. Think karma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
