Usually - yes they will consider that because you could have an STD from casual unprotected sex.

I would think that would be highly likely. However; I do know that your test results would remain confidential so it wouldn’t ‘get around’. If you are under 18 your parents would be notified. Unprotected sex can have many undesirable results. I think you know the rest so be careful when you subject yourself to anything that can affect your life now and in the long run. Not to sound like a drag but use your best judgement and play the “what if “ game. That was a lesson I learned in drivers ed back in 10th grade and I still use it today. In any situation, I’ll ask myself “well, what if this or that happens” and it gives me insight to what could happen. I hope this helped you some…

No, you won’t be disqualified but the blood you donate or sell will be checked for STD’s, hepatitis and any other diseases that may be passed by blood. If you test positive for any life threatening diseases you will be notified ASAP and put on a “banned” list. You won’t be able to give blood anywhere. The list is distributed nationwide…
