Here in Australia I am not allowed to, in case I pass Mad Cow Disease on to the local population!!
I was told the same thing when I went to give blood here in France. If you were resident in the UK between 1980 and 1984 you aren‘t allowed to give blood in France!
Currently giving plasma! Up until recently it was imported from the states die to BSE, but following covid trials they are now starting to collect it from UK patients.
