makes me really mad Options

if you have lived in countries, like Germany, for more than i think its 4 months you cant donate blood to most blood providers...i dont get it...they dont let me donate b/c i mite have Mad Cow...i never ate meat in Germany, im vegetarian...do u think its right? i mean allll these ppl need blood, like right after 9/11, no wonder theres a blood shortage...almost every1 willing to give can't...this elimates like almost all service people n tons of ppl....what do u think? shoud ppl that have lived in European countries n coutries with bad water still be able to give?

If the person has mad cow and it isn't transported through blood, why not. I was going to die anyways so. I mean it's sad but i could try something and the outcome be the same or better or i could not try something and the outcome just be the same with no hope 

Well apparently the debate has deviated from simply mad cow..

And still.. I'd want to be as safe as possible..

Hospitals are supposed to heal patients as much as they can.. not merely save them for the moment onli to die in a few years from contaminated blood
