Thank you for the query voluntary blood donation is a very noble thing. Usually, blood collection is carried out under aseptic precautions, where chances of spread of the infections are nil. The infections which are usually screened for are hiv, hepatitis b and c, syphilis and malaria. Some of the centres check hb prior to donation.
