Detailed explanation-1: -Type O positive blood is critical in trauma care. Those with O positive blood can only receive transfusions from O positive or O negative blood types. Type O positive blood is one of the first to run out during a shortage due to its high demand.
Detailed explanation-2: -What blood can O negative people receive? People with O negative blood can only receive red cell donations from O negative donors.
Detailed explanation-3: -yes, O positive blood is generally safe to be received by an O negative patient because we usually aren’t born with the antibody against Rh positive blood. It’s different from ABO groups in that development of anti-D requires exposure (isoimmunization) to the D/Rh+ antigen. Q.
Detailed explanation-4: -Although the blood type O+ can donate blood to all positive blood types (A+, B+, AB+, and O+), it is not a universal donor. Blood type O-is the universal blood donor, meaning that people with this blood type can donate blood to all other types with a lower risk of causing serious reactions.
