Atlantix2000 Posted May 26, 2022 Report Share Posted May 26, 2022 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10856993/Celebrity-Cruises-passenger-received-blood-HIV-positive-person-ship-medics.html#readerCommentsCommand-message-field So she had a life-saving blood transfusion from a volunteer donor while on a cruise and is later diagnosed with HIV. I'm pretty sure US law requires screening of blood for normal donations but does that apply during an emergency situation? And is that required internationally? And even if it does, I'm not sure where the burden of proof lies here. Can she prove she wasn't HIV positive previously? Can Celebrity prove they tested the blood (if required)? Is the donor even known? So many questions. cruisellama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
