DONATION NOT DISCRIMINATION

 

Gay & Bi-Sexual Men are stopped from giving blood from life Gay and bisexual men are banned by the National Blood Service (NBS) from donating blood for life.

 

LGBT people are not all the same. It is unjust to assume that all gay and bisexual men are automatically at a high risk of contracting HIV/AIDs and therefore should be barred from donating blood. But the NBS refuses to recognise this. After everything that LGBT people have come through, and all the gains we have made towards equality over the last few years, it is hard to believe that we should face such discrimination and homophobia from an organisation such as the National Blood Service.
