Fact: Medical staff uses a new needle. Hence there is no chance of being infected with HIV or any other infection. Giving blood doesn’t invite HIV. Before giving blood, check the hygiene of the blood donation place. Make sure that the needle being used is fresh. That’s it! New sterilized needles are used for every blood donation and are discarded immediately after one use. So, chances of developing any kind of infection – viral or bacterial – are zero.
