		<description><![CDATA[With exeptions i mean if a family member need a blood transfusion are allowed to donate blood?
It&#8217;s because people with tattoos are at risk for hepatitis from dirty needles used in the tattooing process, so the Red Cross doesn&#8217;t take them. And I don&#8217;t think there are exceptions&#8230; but you can always ask.
