Hope you all are enjoying Christmas and other festivals around this time.
I have read from quite a few posts about members asking if they can donate blood if they are thal(minor). While, we were planning for a blood drive this week, we went searching for information and it seems as far as the Hemoglobin level are normal, Thal(Minor) should be able to donate blood.

On Page 17, it is mentioned that Thalassemia(Minor) can offer their blood, if their hemoglobin levels are normal
