according to Haaretz.The United States currently requires men who have sex with men to wait three months from their last same-sex encounter to donate blood.
Many are calling for the U.S. to follow the lead of nations like Israel and disqualify individual behavior rather than having a blanket ban on sexually active gay and bi men.Until December 2015, the U.S.
had a lifetime ban on blood donations from any man who had sex with another man since 1977, fearing they were at high risk for HIV and could taint the blood supply.
