Sravan: Thanks for such an educative mail.Its quite common to have misconceptions about blood donation.Its jsut a matter of having patience to educate people who haven't done before/does not know much about it, one of them being myself.
I tried to donate blood here in US few times, but Red Cross has turned down all the times for the reason that I have travelled to india within the last 18 months or so.I just pity those guys.Waiting eagarly for the opportunity to donate sometime soon during india visit.
