What blood type are you?

Silenceisbliss

inspired by the "did you ever give blood thread", most of you should know what blood type you are.

curious to see what the dispersion is and whether or not most people do actually know.

O+ 47%
A+ 26%
B+ 9%
O- 8%
A- 5%
B- 2%
AB+ 2%
AB- 1%

Mine is the same as my motto on life: Be positive.
My friend from Leitrim says he's got the Culchices motto on life. Ah, be positive.


I give blood regularly, but I reckon they chuck it out most the time. I used to work as a nurse and in all my time there I only ever saw B+ blood hanging up once.

Round of applause for myself..clap clap clap:D

What is this blood you speak of? My body runs on pure hate! Far superior to that blood stuff! :mad:

starflake

This is a really stupid question but is your blood type determined by your genetics? Will you have the same blood type as your parents... do blood cells contain DNA? I guess they must have..... mmmm Just wondering... I really dont know my biology

longshanks

A-

O negative here. its good for sick babies apparently. any time i donate the nurses there seem genuinely happy to see me. 'oh so you're the o neg, thanks for coming down, thanks a lot'. works wonders for the ego.
although in saying that i'm thinking of changing it next year, maybe trade up to something more exclusive. any suggestions?

pablomakaveli

what is it about the blood that determines its type?

is it the white cell count or something along those lines?

does anyone here know?

yes it's genetic. but that doesnt mean you neccesarilly HAVE to have the same as your parents. mutations can occur. for instance; my mum is -B, my dad +AB. and although both me and one of my sisters are -B, my other sis is +0.

as far as I know, it's the type of agglutinogens that exist on your red blood cell protiens

white blood cell deficiency if i recall correctly is cancer.

Be advised that this is a public poll: other users can see the choice(s) you selected.

I'd be very wary of answering this poll. Why would it be a public poll? The OP obviously needs a drop of the red stuff and is sussing out potential donors. Those who have their real locations in their profiles and have posted pictures in Know Yore Nerds should be especially cautious.

you wouldnt really describe having the O blood group as being '+' for O, the + symbol is to tell us if the D antigen is present on the red blood cell, sorry for getting technical...

B+ for me.
