Does american red cross issue out donor id cards to people who infected with std's?

Red Cross policy





Sexually Transmitted Disease


Wait 12 months after treatment for syphilis or gonorrhea.





Acceptable if it has been more than 12 months since you completed treatment for syphilis or gonorrhea.





Chlamydia, venereal warts (human papilloma virus), or genital herpes are not a cause for deferral if you are feeling healthy and well and meet all other eligibility requirements.


the Red Cross guideline on STD's and blood donations:

Does american red cross issue out donor id cards to people who infected with std's?
I assume that if a person





a) is not at high risk for a blood-transmitted disease and


b) wants to give blood





that the Red Cross would, and should, give them a donor card.





They aren't going to be having sex with the blood recipient. Only giving them blood. So if they don't have a blood-bourne disease, what's the issue?
