Tried to go and donate blood today at my work's annual blood drive.

I haven't donated blood in quite a long time.  I've been denied before, but that was because I had gotten a tattoo recently, and another time because one of my tattoos had gotten infected.

This time however, I cleared all the obstacles for donation without any trouble until they asked:  "Have you ever served in the Military overseas for over a total of 6 months?"  Answer:  Yes

"Were you ever stationed in Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Malta, etc... for over a total of 6 months?"  Answer:  Yes

Donation:  DENIED - Cannot donate INDEFINITELY

WTF?

So I asked  as to the reason why.  Answer:  Not entirely sure.  Something about Mad Cow Disease.

What. The. Fuck?

So, I can't donate blood for the indefinite future.  Interesting.

Yep, you can't donate blood. Gotta keep your potentially infected prions out of the community blood pool. We don't want people getting transfusions with a bonus of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

Yeah, join the club...mad cow's disease restrictions suck...I haven't been allowed to give blood for four years and I left Germay in 1991.\r \r Good luck...let me know if they lift the ban...
