Man not allowed to donate blood, donates kidney instead
He still found a way to continue contributing to society: his kidney. He said: ‘’So I needed to find a way to give back that wasn’t giving blood. I know the need is there for kidney donations, so it seemed like a no-brainer — how could I not?’’
Afterwards, he emphasized the hypocrisy within the rules made by the Food & Drugs Association (FDA), that legally prevent gay and bi men from donating blood. According to him the rules are ‘’crazy’’ due to the exclusion of a big group while there is a shortage of blood donations in the U.S.
