People believe that hospitals/blood banks always have enough blood of all types? Nimue ignored my first question? Misconception that blood doesn't have types? That blood is just blood. This brings to mind a yo mamma joke, yo mamma is so fat her blood type is Ragu. Misconception is that if you take medications that you cannot donate blood because no one can use it? Some other excuse for not giving blood relevant? | ||

Is the scrund that there is no need for blood types other than O, because O can be used by anyone? | ||

I asked why anyone would need her blood; couldn't people with her blood type get any negative blood: O, A, B, or AB? She said that was just for emergencies. Otherwise it's always best to receive blood of your own type. How many of you had this scrund? Regardless of whether you did, please check out my new puzzle!! | ||

I didn't have this scrund, but everyone in my family has a common blood type, so it doesn't affect me as much. Though I do know someone with AB blood. |
