Factors associated with <scp>HIV</scp> infection in U.S. blood donors across evolving deferral policies
Our findings suggest no major impact of revised deferral policies on HIV risk factors among blood donors, nor among risk factors for any HIV and recent HIV infection in this population. These findings should be reassessed after sufficient accrual of data from the individual donor assessment deferral policy period.
