Incompetence

I have been in south africa since 1981 came here from rhodesia. I've been donating blood on and off since then. I have O+ blood and have donated 150 times over the years. The last time I was in zimbabwe was 1987. I worked in Mozambique in 2001. This has never been a problem with me donating blood. 2 months ago I went as usual every 2 months to donate blood at our work but was refused because I was born in rhodesia. I was told there is a three year waiting period and I can donate blood again in 2028. I haven't been in a malaria area since 2001. Well I have decided that SANBS have more than enough blood because they don't need mine. They will be at my work again tomorrow 07/05/2024. And I may not donate blood. In fact I will never donate blood and this is thanks to the incompetence of the staff at SANBS. GREAT JOB GUYS. WAY TO TURN AWAY DONORS
