Why You Can't Mix Blood Types
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 07. 2018
- While blood types have been around for at least 20 million years, doctors have only known about them for about 116 years. Prior to the 1900s, countless people died when they were injected with the wrong type of blood. This is because blood is composed of proteins called antigens that, when mixed with the wrong type, fight each other as if you're body was fighting an infection.

So basically our blood types are like different wines to mosquitos
yeah, and if i remeber corrdctly they prefer type O blood, i dont remember if they like positive or negative O blood the most but I'd think it would be negative
Yeah
zachos 2000 thanks for the help I’m a O- thanks for the advice
No,Vodka
@@zachos-un6py I wonder why they prefer O type blood🤔
The mosquitoes must be enjoying the differently flavored blood we all have
Original Boi lmao 😂
Is there a restaurant for mosquitoes?
Normal Thingamajig yep it's called earth
Hmmm 🤔🤔
Boi count yourself lucky. I'm like a magnet.
I donated blood today, it feels good to be someone’s type 😏
Stella Hart a large majority of blood is wasted and thus thrown away. Conclusion is that you could be garbage.
Gibby Liang you're garbage..
Jake Mitch I could be but we’ll never know
Gibby Liang please provide source for your information. I know the Red Cross is always in a blood shortage.
Sarah Buchan I asked my phlebotomist but you can just google it. They always use o blood right away in emergencies so that’s not really thrown away. Blood can only be stored for 42 days before it has to be throw away. Think about the days it take for the facility to collect the needed blood then transport it then wait for hospitals to use it. Not everyone every where is needing that blood transfusions so yes blood does go to waste. Sorry to all the people scared of needles becoming courageous enough to give blood but it’s most likely it’s going to be thrown away before use of saving someone’s life. Idk probably used for someone’s GRS
I don't wanna brag but i took a blood test and i got an A+ 😎
Probably the only A+ you'll ever get
Seal Of Apoorval roasted
me too
Lolololol
I got an A-, close enough 😂
Humans: we must be careful with blood types and not inject them to others
Mosquitoes: its free real estate
@doodskie999 Lol
furry road .....free game also
"Don't go injecting your pets with your blood" there go my plans for the evening, guess I'll just keep watching CZcams
Any AB+?
We guys can take blood of any blood group😎

Ew hiv blood
How about HIV+ BLOOD...
LuiZz lol
Me im ab+
Questions we have but never bothered to look it up.
Thank you recommendations list.
Question that's going to save your life: Doctor, what is my blood type?
“Why settle for B- when you can have A+”
Krul Tepes Or an AB+
When you are 0- and you get worshipped whenever you donate blood 😂😂
Undercover vampire: Hey, how's it going sweet thang?
Why are you lonely?
sooo blood is a poison?
Julio’s Pizza that’s what septic shock is pretty much
Only if you mix different types together in a transfusion.
Gibby Liang no, septic shock is a blood infection caused from bacteria.. not from getting the wrong kind of blood.. I had septic blood as well as shoulder infection and endocridiyis at one point, it was the worst pain I've ever felt 105 degree temp and shit
Jake Mitch I didn’t say anything about getting the wrong kind of blood. When you have sepsis the infection in your blood is essentially making your blood “poison” idk if that really makes sense
Gibby Liang yeah not really lol
B+ here.
Dunkleosteus same yeh
Dunkleosteus Hey what's up, Dunkleosteus? How's it going?
MEEEEEE!!!
Me. Whazzup
Me too
The mosquito comments got me thinking. I have AB- and every year when the family gathers up north (I live in Michigan), I am almost never bitten unless I am the only one around and even then it is pretty rare.
theres so many intricacies of blood typing and transfusion med, and thats what i like about it. my jobs stressful but you learn a lot and its fascinating. blood type is also determined by two sets of alleles so someone who is type A or type B can technically be AO/AA or BO/BB since O is recessive. there are also subgroups of type A that arent too uncommon and can cause reactions as well (someone who is type A2 can create an anti A1 which is the most common of the two groups).
Well.. my blood type is O- and both of my parents are O-, BUT WHY MY BROTHER HAVE O+?! T-T
Ms. Hi adopted
zeeotter100 Hahaha doesn't have to. This can be from your grandparents.
Ms. Hi
- × - = +?
Jm Calaramo correct 👍👍👍
O positive is ranked #3 common and O negative is ranked #7 out of the 12 blood types. But, now there is new findings of 2 new blood types in recent years with both having less than 1000 people worldwide within them.
O+ here.
Anyone else?😕
Aleena Rubab ooh I am!!!
meee!
Me
That's the most common blood type roughly 1/3rd of the population has it
Aleena Rubab ooh cool, I have o-
Q: why do we have different types of blood
A: so that mosquitos and enjoy different flavours
Most simplest and easiest explanation
Thank you, you just made my whole homework 👍🏼
The rarest blood group is actually the Bombay Blood group. And it was discovered by an indian doctor practicing at the then Bombay, aka Mumbai. Seriously look it up. BBG is the actual universal donor, not even O+ve. Bombay Blood Group can be donated to everybody, but can only accept from another BBG. Currently there are only 400 registered donors of BBG, within this 1.25 billion population of India.
PS you are right about Indians having more number of B+ve people. I am B+, so is my dad and my brother. And so are most of my friends. O+ve is quite rare in India.
Poulomi Hari I just looked it up the other day, it's like o- but even more special.. I wish I had it honestly, I feel like people with that blood group have something special about them
I looked it up as HH blood group but same thing. I am B+ as well as my father and my mother is O+, B+ is only 8% of the population still pretty rare especially in America. By the way you are very pretty.
Jake Mitch thankyou 🤗🤗
I'm O+
Tvesa Gajra that is the most common blood type
1:45 I'm Indian and my blood type is B+. Can confirm this video is legit
Ramy Mohamed if you look closely that's exactly what my avatar says. (Yes I spent hours on Photoshop editing that)
Ramy Mohamed thanks !
Seal Of Apoorval have you heard of HH blood type that is mainly found in India and really rare
Seal Of Apoorval I honestly wish I had it, it seems really special honestly. I have B+, I had to buy an Eldon card blood test to get it because it's a pain to know your blood type in America
Jake Mitch lol no. What is it?
This is bloody amazing!
OH NO
great vid BI!
Awesome sir thanks a lot amazing explanation
So every time we mix blood it's like a microscopic battle royal?
Would love to see that.
This is really short for such a interesting topic. You could speak more on how the blood types interact, how RH interact and offer some info about what other disease are most common for other blood types.
That was very interesting I like it thank you so much
As an O negative. I can tell you that I should've been dead at 16 if not for my 16 year old cousin who happens to me my age and the only person with our blood type within a 30 mile radius. Our blood is so damn rare, it's a miracle we have each other and grew up together since we were babies. Our mothers are sisters and 2 years apart with both being O positive.
We also both love to tell others that we're like vampires that can give others blood if needed since our blood is the true Universal blood donors unlike our fake counterparts, the O positives. Only being able to give blood to other Rh positives and not negatives like we can.
@Eriss R. O- can only receive O-, but can donate to anyone.
Each of them have one - , positive however is dominant, they both gave you their rare -
It's not that rare about 7% have it. I really doubt it's the only known blood type within a 30 mile radius The most rare is Rhnull about 50 recorded cases.
A few years ago I found out I was O+ which was same as my grandma and maternal uncle, I was surprised because pretty much everyone around me had B+ since we're South Asian so I come in the rare type in here. I recently found out my baby cousin who's from my maternal aunt has also O+... Blood groups are really fascinating..
I'm Hispanic and I also have 0+blood type.
I was dignosed as B- when I was a kindergarten, I held into it and never had blood tranfusion. I do blood donation when I reach enough age, and boy it turned out I was O+ all along.
Hmmm so that’s why mosquitoes love to drink my O+ blood
Thanks for video
i wonder what a supposed chemistry and biology of vampires work with such blood types
lol
When you don’t know what blood type you are, I mean, my parents never told me nor did my doctor. So what if I die because of that..
When you donate blood they test what type you are and give you the details. Plus your doctor likely already knows, so call your doctors clinic or whatever and just ask.
Apparently, I'm so smart that even my blood type is A+
Edit: also it's very likely that I will get cancer in the future due to my family history so...yay.
@@cinnabarite I still want my own children... I know that it would be hell for my children though...
@@threecheeseburrito minecraft can cure cancer
@@bnef4449 Good thing I love playing minecraft then
@@threecheeseburrito you're welcome
I'm O+
I’m an A- blood type, and I’m currently CMV negative. Unfortunately, I’m also on a year long donor restriction.
good topic , i want to know more
30 years till now don’t know my group
I need to get serious
Universal Acceptor 😎✌️ AB+.
I love this channel!
That explains why I have an ulcer, but not how my Dad got one...at least as far as blood type goes. How do blood types interact with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) , the germ that causes ulcers?
Would be interesting to explain how 0- is universal
The O isn’t actually the letter O. It’s the number zero. It represents the absence of either the A or B antigens.
The negative sign represents absence of the Rh factor.
This means that O- blood type has none of these antigens, so there is nothing for the antibodies to recognize as foreign. Esentially, red blood cells of type O- are “invisible” to antibodies. This is why they can donate to any blood type.
@@159Fender159 that's really cool to know, thx!
@@iNightra No problem! Do note, blood type O- is the universal DONOR, not the universal recipient. The universal RECIPIENT is the AB+ type.
It'd be interesting to know
"Don't go injecting pets with your blood."
I think before watching this video, that went without saying.
WHO'S INJECTING PETS WITH THEIR OWN BLOOD!? lol
You ever just see a video about something you already know about, but click it anyway for a time killer?
Here is one kicker I'm a cna I used to work at a hospital and one day the blood bus came so most of the nursing staff gives blood and so on . It became my turn I gave blood and left give or take 5 to 10 min later a man came in emergency room and needed my blood type and I kid you not they hung the bag that had my name on it fresh.
Wait AB- is the rarest blood type? I thought the rarest was O+ and that O+ can be donated to anyone? Someone answer this for me please I want to hear the answer from a human being to lazy to google!
Weapon Valhalla O+ is the universal donor but that doesn't mean It has to be rare.
oh ok ty, so 0+ isn't rare as I thought it was but still is the universal donor. But people with O+ can only get O+ right?
Weapon Valhalla yes I believe. They can only receive from other o+
Not an expert but yeah..
Weapon Valhalla hiiiii bbro mine is also o+ and everyone in our home is the same blood group so could u say it is the rarest although people with blood group AB-ve are found to be less
Weapon Valhalla Blood group O- is the one to be rare. And the + and - resembles the present of Rh (rhesus) factor. So blood group + can only go to a person with + and not - . And according to the video O+ is one of the most common blood type.
If someone have 0+ blood and injected with 0- blood, is it still risky? Why there is minus and plus on blood types?
Clash With Zan Negative blood types can donate to both negative and positive but can only receive from negative.
Positive blood types can only donate to positive but can receive from both negative and positive.
Clash With Zan it refers to the presence or absence of the Rhesis antigen
What myungjunjun said, and the +/- thing has to do with the Rhesus factor in our blood. Roughly 84-86% have it (Rh+), while the rest don’t (Rh-). It’s like the ABO thing, but if there was only A & O instead of A, B, and O.
Damn, quite accurate, I'm O-ve and I have a bad time with ulcers.. like there isn't a month without a ulcer in my mouth for a week
My dad is AB, but unfortunately I only got the O+ blood. Would have been great being a member of the 2%.
Read about "Golden blood type" and "Bombay blood type(type HH)"
I’m an AB Negative (rarest blood type in the world😎) 💞 Who else?
Me also ab-😅✌
Soviet Mapper ? What? 😂 I know that RH- is rare but I’m taking about which blood group is the rarest. AB negative is the rarest.
Also, RH factor is a protein in your blood stream, not a blood type. RH negative is when you don’t have that protein.
Soviet Mapper lmao ok then 😂 keep believing that, mr genius
Soviet Union
I think you are confused.
The negative and positive signs represent the absence or presence of the Rh factor, respectively; regardless of the A or B antigens.
So any blood type with the negative symbol (O-, A-, B- and AB-) do not have the Rh factor. We can then say that they are all Rh-.
I’m O+, and so is my mom. My sister and my dad are both O-. We try to donate as often as we can since all of us have blood that can go to a lot of people. But we can only receive blood from other people with O blood.
Im AB+ , Can I still die if I got injected A,B and O blood? Or it needs to be RH- first to be lethal?
Where my AB- peeps at

Gabs I posted about mosquitoes. Do they bother you?
thats cap

I'm with you, I'm the only one in my family!
Hiero Onymos me too! Hopefully I never get in an accident or something. It would be hard to find a donor 😟
Hiero Onymos im A+
Hi there AB- too
I didn't know it is such a rare blood type, and i thought that it is pointless to donate blood, we used to think that O- can supply all human beings with blood, i will reconsider it
I thought it would.... You know, Make us go feral
2:12 well thats my Friday night plans out the window...
So different blood types mean ...
Different cells?
( Just Joking Ok 😁 👌 )
Chicken nuggets what did I just say? ( Just Joking Ok 😁 👌 )
NO, different ANTIGENS
LuiZz well that makes sense 🤔
LuiZz it was a joke
Type A is Apple flavored
Type B is Blueberry flavored
Type O is Orange flavored
Type AK-47 is flavored Chuck Norris
Myriad of Miracles Uhhh so my blood is Apple Blueberry flavor? Weird combination but ok
You mean Russia flavored
Like that sense of humour.
I'm B- and my sister is AB- we have the 2 rarest blood types and where I'm from there's literally a handful of people that can donate their blood to either of us

This is interesting. Blood types are different. So when people say stuff like: we’re all humans, we all have the same red blood flowing through our veins. It’s technically not the same. Each ethnic group is unique.
ll विनी शर्मा ll It doesn’t necessarily mean different ethnic groups. I’m an amalgamation of like 7 different ethnic groups and I’m AB+

mike baxter I yawned after reading.😂
I think there are different blood groups because couples who marry and have the same blood group may have children with some disability( as far as I've observed.) This may be possible . However it's just my point of view, there might be other theories.
I thought I could never get an A+ in my life..... till I took a blood test

O- here! I love being the universal donor! Just donated last week for the 20th time. DONATE YOUR BLOOD PEOPLE❣️
I am curious. My partner has an aversion to blood in general because of this very thing. He thinks interacting with someone's blood at all could be cause for this to happen, including period blood. Obviously im not injecting it into him, but im curious to know if it COULD actually do him harm if he happened to have some of it get in him somehow
No, that's absolutly impossible. Only exception: possible transmission of HIV, hepatitis and similar infections if there's i.e. wound-to-wound contact.

O- and O+ (i think) are the universal blood types, and can be given to everyone with different blood types.
Only O- is universal. O+ (i think) cam donate to all the positive types.

i dont know my blood type..😂
Ella Kim same 🤣😂
Why not? O.O in my country it's something you know since birth :v
i always forget
That's ok, I only found out last year when I donated blood, and I'm 22. My sister didn't find out til she gave birth at 27 years old. If you've never been to hospital then it isn't a necessary thing to know.
they don't tell you your blood type from birth?
But how do you determine that? How are we supposed to know?
well what I know is that o+ only takes blood from people who have o+ but people who have b+ can take from both o+ and b+ thats why its always harder for people who have o+
I'm an O+

Hello I'm from Iran and my country needs blood
Is it possible to transfer blood to another city ? If yes how much does it cost
I really need your help
Pls answer me
My mother is O+ and my dad is B+ and i'm closely related to my mother. And as it turns out my blood type is B+. My mother and relatives are laughing so hard 😂
Gerry Entertainment Its because type O blood type is always recessive (its like minor type, something like that lol...) and a and b types are always dominant.
For example, if your father has A and your mother is O, you will inherit A blood because A is dominant. If your mother is A and your father is B then, you will get AB since its both Dominant
People usually take After father
Gerry Entertainment im exactly the same
If two person married, with blood types :
A+B = AB
A+O = A (heterogen)
B+O = B (heterogen)
AB + O = can be A or B
AB + A = most likely A
AB + B = most likely B
O + O = O
A + A = A (homogen)
B + B = B (homogen)
But how does O type still exist?
My blood is Z+

Is it possible to change the genes in a embryo to get a different blood type?
I believe blood types were developed as an adaptation for humans. When they come from different regions all of them are susceptible to types different diseases, like African children are more likely to have sickle cell disease because it helps prevent malaria. So what if it’s the same type of concept
