Oh God, are ADs a fail too? In that case I fail on two counts! Oh well. I would if I could.

(It's all that gay sex nonsense, of course - I've slept with very few men who haven't had sex with another man! It still irritates me that that discounts you.)

To paraphrase a comedian (sorry, I forget who), you'd be fine if you'd slept with Russel Brand but not if you'd slept with Stephen Fry.

Mitch Benn in an incredibly irritating and under researched song. If you saw the docco where Stephen Fry took an HIV test it was clear that it wasn't a formality. Brand goes to the US too much to donate, and I'd be staggered if he'd never slept with a sex worker, given his lap dancer habit. But unfortunately they've never perfected the question they really need for heterosexuals Are you a slag? Do you very frequently sleep with people you've only just met?

They reckoned it was okay to donate on sertraline, I don't know about other ADs.

I inquired about this, and their response was if you're stable at the moment, and feel fine, then you are OK (providing you meet the other criteria, of course!). The general line is that you should ask first.

The incidence of HIV in MSMs is 20 times that of the population at large - obviously the factor is larger still when compared to the subset of the population who can give blood. There's no 100% effective test for HIV, and no test for the next blood-borne disease because we don't know what it is. The rules make sense, unfortunately.
