Dear FORUM,

Dr. Alok Chantia, is correct, It is not possible to test HIV Virus in with any

rapid test.

This one of the short comings with the rapid tests. And it is not possible to

conduct PCR on every donar at any donation camp.If we reject the blood without

conducting the advanced tests, we are depriving the people the life saving blood

in the emergency.

With HIV infection the person can live for around 10 years , but with out blood

in the emergency, the patient dies on the spot. In that situation, If I am a

doctor, I go ahead with blood transfusion from a positive donar till the new and

effective methods of testing are available(It may be wrong and cruel)

To assure the blood safety, The donar should be counselled before the donation.

The counseller should assess the risk of possible infection in last 6 months.

In the consect form, there are few question , If the donar gives the correct

answers with the spirit of humanity, There will be very little chance of the

spread of HIV.

with warm regards,

Yours sincerely,

Narasimha Swamy
