Blood banking is one of the most interesting, challenging and complex professions around and can elicit powerful emotional responses. The authors explore how far we have come in protecting the blood supply from infectious disease transmission and project what lies ahead.

Whether you consider blood banking a medical speciality, a service or an industry, it is one of the most interesting, challenging and complex professions around. When issues of blood safety arise, they elicit unique emotional responses that often transcend larger public health issues, as well as impassioned pleas for cost-effectiveness. The authors explore how far we have come in protecting the blood supply from infectious disease transmission and project what lies ahead.
