My experience at the Blood Bank
May 21st, 2007 |
Today I went to donate blood at the Blood Bank in Jabriya. I was impressed by how quick and efficient they are. The whole process took about 20 minutes including the qualifying test, filling up the forms, and donating the blood.
The form… I have to talk about that!! it’s the funniest application i’ve seen! “not saying it’s useless or there is no reason for it.. but it’s different :P”
the form has bunch of Yes/No question which all 90% of them revolve around Aids basically… some of the questions are:
- Are you donating blood to test your self for AIDS?
- Did you have sex with a guy, even once? (for guys only)
- Did you pay for sex?
- Have you been paid for sex or given drugs to do so?
- and the questions are almost all around this subject ;P
After finishing the blood test they gave me JUICE !!!!! they are so nice … after i left the building and got into my car and started driving i realized that I was so light headed that I drove on the wrong side of the road :P
