If I have had staph infections, can I donate blood?!


Question: If I have had staph infections, can I donate blood!?
I have had minor staph infections, like cellucitis, and an abscess, but would it be a problem for me to donate blood!? I love donating blood, but I am worried I will infect others

I just wrote a research paper over MRSA, and I know methods of contact, but I wanted to know for sure if donating blood would risk others of this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
