Is the blood bank safe? |
There is a 30 day window for aids exposure to show up on a blood test. Do you REALLY trust blood transfusions? You have to trust that it is. They have better screening for AIDS infected blood now. Years back in time though we were assured it all was safe and then we find out later that people got AIDS from transfusions. So, fast forward in time and your answer if it is safe will be answered by proving itself by no one getting illnesses from it. In the meantime, if you know you will need blood, donate your own; in other instances people just must use what's there. I really hope so I've been going there for snacks for a long time. You Should Be able to trust them. They are a public service in which many people trust. It IS Very safe, as much procaution is taken to ensure the safety of its clients. If you couldn't trust them, it would be a scandal. Now about testing, if you aren't sure, about any sort of test, of any kind, retake it. Tell whomever took the blood, or made a transfution, to please recheck, as it would assure you of YOUR safety. They don't let you give blood if you've had sexual realtions with someone who even possibily has HIV (HIV is the virus that you get from blood transfusions AIDS is the symoptoms of HIV). The window has been shut almost -but not completely- with a new kind of test that causes viral RNA to replicate and then be detected. It is called a NAT test for Nucleic Acid Test. It is used to detect the RNA of the HIV viruses and the Hepatitis C virus. These tests are superior because they detect the actual presence of the virus rather than the presence of the antibody - which is the donor's response to the presence of the virus which can take months to show up. The chances of getting HIV from a blood transfusion is 1:1,900,000. I would be a lot more concerned about getting blood of the wrong type. The risk of that is 1:100,000! The reason for that is partly due to the current shortage of nursing and laboratory personnel. no, i dont trust them, but i have no choice, there had been some cases when someone got aids by transfusion. and i cant believe this could happen in the third millennium but... what can we do? |
