Please note that due to pending federal regulations, we are not able to accept donor applicants who have had sex with other men within the past five years. We very much regret this regulation (and in fact, representatives from our bank have expressed our concerns at FDA hearings), but we are required to abide by it in order to keep our tissue bank license. Tissue bank licensing bodies follow US Public Health Service guidelines, which define men who have had sex with men as "high-risk" for HIV, regardless of their individual risk management practices.
and I am not naming names, but I think this addendum will knock out a few of you guys as well.
