@malcolmmcswain Help! I think it's false. I know Type O is the universal donor but I don't think it works both ways

nebi · Answer

People with type O blood cannot receive transfusions because its plasma antibodies would attack all other blood types. But they can donate to any blood type because type O is free from all immune-system antagonizing antigens. So your answer is False.
