We haven’t checked with the hospitals yet. Although, I have heard the same thing. I had no problem doing a direct donation years ago but I’m sure the powers that be don’t want us to be able to control our own health anymore.
It seems to me that you could, prior to a planned surgical procedure, donate your own blood with the intention of having it used for your surgery if blood was needed. What happened to that?
I did autologous blood donation before I had a planned surgery back in 2000 and had no problems. Now I’d bet they’d disallow it. Times have changed and not for the better.
I had hand surgery last year and asked if I could pre-donate if I needed blood. I was told no. My surgery wasn’t expected to need a transfusion but they ask anyway. Years ago I did pre-donate when I had major back surgery & they suggested it due to AIDs I guess. Frightening times.
do hospitals wont allow direct personal donations ??

before that was allowed
Or....they’d allow it but lie and give you vaxxed blood just because they knew you didn’t want it. My trust in medicine is completely gone.
