U.S. Food & Drug Administration policies that have limited blood donations from men who have sex with men may soon ease.
At the moment, FDA policy does not allow blood donation from men who have had sex with other men in the past three months. That’s already a shorter timeframe than in the past, when the agency required a one-year gap.
The agency is now considering switching to questionnaires that focus on individual risk, rather than blanket limitations, CNN reported.
