Give the gift of life! Winter is one of the most difficult times to collect enough blood for those who need it, so if you’re still on the fence - here are a few reasons to consider donating: 1. A blood transfusion occurs every two seconds in the U.S. 2. Blood is perishable – only lasting 42 days. 3. More than 60% of Americans are eligible to donate, but only 3% do. Learn more about the importance of blood donation, here: https://hubs.ly/Q02dSCDD0

As I re-share this reminder of the #WorldBloodDonorDay, let's address a topic that is particularly close to my heart: the persistent inequities in blood donation policies across Europe. While donating blood is a crucial, selfless act that saves lives daily, outdated health policies still prevent healthy individuals from contributing based solely on their sexual orientation. This not only diminishes the potential blood supply but also perpetuates deep-rooted prejudices and stigmatization. Progress is being made as several European countries are revising these outdated restrictions. For instance, countries like Italy, France, and Austria have shifted to assess risky behaviors rather than imposing bans based on sexual orientation. This change is both more equitable and effective, enhancing the blood supply while ensuring safety. However, considerable challenges remain. In places like Croatia and Romania, despite no official legal bans, discriminatory practices are still common at the institutional level. In Sweden, for example, men who have sex with men are allowed to donate blood after a deferral period of six months, whereas men who have sex with women do not have a specific deferral period for blood donation. These ongoing issues remind us of the crucial work needed to dismantle these biases and enhance equity within our healthcare systems. As we recognize the importance of blood donations, let's also push for inclusive policies that allow every healthy person to donate, regardless of their sexual orientation. By removing these barriers, we can expand the donor pool and take significant steps toward a more just and inclusive society. For those interested in this cause, I recommend reading more about the current state of blood donation restrictions based on sexual orientation in the EU in this informative article from Lauren Chadwick on Euronews: https://lnkd.in/dx8fGst6
