[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 415879, member: 175057"] The blood service already check for HIV and Hepatitis, so as you say, checking for CJD can only be helpful. :) It's a great shame that most people don't even consider giving blood. They are desperately short of certain types, to the degree that they now ring you before each session. For those who fear the needle, there is now a local anaesthetic available, which takes away any pain, even without, it is only slightly uncomfortable. [/QUOTE]
