[QUOTE="Nellie, post: 18440, member: 7196"] No test possible, except at post mortem and I'm not going that route :wink: Sarah, I think that other countries through necessity (they need all the blood they can get) have changed their rules realising that insulin is not a problem (nor is it detectable)the biggest risk is to the doner. Funnily enough for years I couldn't donate whole blood in the UK because I had Hep A as a young child, now they allow it if you had it before the age of 10. With cjd other countries don't dare risk the possibility that 'British' blood is contaminated. Just one case which could be proved to come from that source could reduce public confidence in the system ( even though those countries may also had their own outbreaks of BSE.) [/QUOTE]
