If I had leukemia, I'd love some possibly-mad-cow-tainted blood/marrow from an otherwise healthy donor.

:-) I am the UK kidney transplant list last year I turned down a potential kidney as there was a risk that the donor was potentialy HIV+

The surgeons second line was "don't worry we have really good drugs for HIV these days"

In the end we agreed that given my age and I then had fairly good function left that letting some on else have it was for the best
