Emerging pathogens and their implications for the blood supply and transfusion transmitted infections

R. Dodd

Published 2012 in British Journal of Haematology

ABSTRACT

The threat of infection by conventional transfusion‐transmitted agents has been essentially eliminated from the blood supply in developed countries, thus focusing attention on the potential risk from emerging infections. Over recent years, actions have been taken to manage a number of such risks to blood safety. These illustrate the inherent variability of the agents concerned and of the measures needed to define and control the risk.
