If you know you cannot donate blood due to a recent tattoo or peircing, try getting someone who can donate to go in your place. Also, many people do not know how long you have to wait once getting a new tattoo or peircing, you have to wait a whole year. I also find it not so nice to give blood and then tell the nurse that they can't use it due to an issue. If just puts a damper on the nurse and the rest of the employees at Red Cross. Those nurses go home everyday after a blood drive knowing how many pints of blood that was taken and know how many lives that saves but if they have so many people saying that you can't use their blood, just puts a huge damper on their day. If you know you cannot give blood for sure, don't lie and do so instead bring someone who can in your place.
