A member asked:
To whom can people with negative blood donate blood to?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Of course: You are likely referring to the rh factor which follows the letter(-s) of blood type as (+) or (-). It's not quite a 50/50 split, but both positive and negative donors are needed. Call the red cross at 1-800-red-cross for more information, local donation center and an appointment!
