Guest Spindrifter Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Hi Can I continue to donate blood in Australia? I have donated in the UK for many years now and would like to continue in WA. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peach Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 If you were alive during the UK mad cow disease crisis - No. There is no screening for the prion that causes CJD (mad cow diseases in humans) and as a result the Aussies don't want your blood.
