what is common blood group - #25182

Advait

I am kinda confused about blood groups, and trying to figure out what is common blood group. A few weeks ago, during a routine check-up, my doctor said my blood type is B positive, which I thought was pretty rare. But then I hear people saying they have A or O blood types all the time, like, is that what most people have? I don’t know, it's sort of stressing me out because I heard that knowing what is common blood group can be important for emergencies or transfusions or whatever. I thought everyone should know their type, but when I mentioned it to my friends, they didn’t even know what theirs was! I mean, if I'm needing a transfusion, does it really matter that I’m B positive if most folks are A or O? I just keep thinking about like, how many people actually know their blood type? Is there a reason why some groups are more common than others? What is common blood group anyway, is it something I should be worried about even? I wish I had more clarity on this because it feels like I’m in the dark! Any insights guys?
