Hi Nigel, Donate at a local red cross. They will tell you on the spot.

Now, some blood banks may not test for Rh immediately as Rh- is so so rare here... they may not have a bottle of the reagent open. (the liquid that tests for a reaction)

But it will be tested later. And you can follow up with them later.

Alternatively, you can buy your own self test kit. It's an expensive option and I understand that the reagents must remain refrigerated.

Hi Terary, thank you for responding. The Red Cross Blood Banks are always available to take donations.

Some hospitals do not have donation capability and will host Red Cross blood drives instead. Government Hospitals often have donation capabilities. The smaller ones may not.

Please PM me and I will help you find a location near you.

Blood is our common life-source. Donated blood should be available to all patients who need it, regardless of who they are, where they are or their ability to pay.

Hi Gordon, that is correct. We are working to remove this restriction. The United States removed it in October 2022. Australia in May 2022.

We encourage all Rh Negative people to join our Emergency Blood Donation Group in advance. Thank you for responding.
