I wonder if studies like this could eventually have an impact on blood donor age ranges?

The Red Cross[1] current lower limit is 17 (16 with guardian consent), with no upper limit as long as donor is well & not restricted in activity.

The Red Cross is more concerned about you not dying from blood loss.
