 West Chazy, New York | When AIDS was a new thing, the Red Cross began a much more stringent screening process, including a bar code sticker for "use my blood" or "do not use" that the donor had to place on his questionnaire. The girl assured me that no one on the donation site could read it to ensure confidentiality. I smiled and pointed out to her that the only difference between the two stickers was that the last line in the sequence was either thick or thin. Based on her reaction, I think that information was going to be shared with everyone on the staff in a very short time. | |
