3. Ask questions to see if you might be at risk for hepatitis, HIV, or AIDs.
    
4. Take your blood pressure, temperature and pulse.
    
5. Take a small blood sample to make sure you are not anemic.

24 Hour Blood Donation Deferral Lifted For Flu Vaccination

As of September 2011, there will no longer be a deferral for the influenza vaccine, as long as the blood donor feels well and does not have a fever.  Prior to the lifting of this deferral, a donor would be deferred for 24 hours after receiving the flu vaccine.
