Blood Donation

This week on Well Well Well, we’re joined by Josh Smith from Lifeblood and Professor John Kaldor from the Kirby Institute to unpack the recent changes to plasma donation rules, now allowing thousands more—including gay, bi+ and trans Australians—to donate without a wait period.

We also look ahead to 2026, when gender-neutral rules for blood and platelet donation are set to be introduced.
