[NUMERATOR:]
Since March 1985, have you donated blood at the Red Cross, at a bloodmobile, at a blood drive, or at other blood banks?
Not counting tests you may have had as part of blood donations, have you ever been tested for HIV?
Respondents were considered to have been tested for HIV, if they answered “yes” to either numerator question (“Since March 1985, have you donated blood at the Red Cross, at a bloodmobile, at a blood drive, or at other blood banks?” or “Not counting tests you may have had as part of blood donations, have you ever been tested for HIV?”). Persons who have donated blood since March 1985 are considered to have been tested for HIV as part of the blood donation process.
