which blood group is the most common - #25214
I am curious about something that’s been on my mind lately! A few weeks ago, during a routine check-up, I found out my blood group is O+. The nurse mentioned that O+ is one of the most common blood types, but I wasn't really sure what that means in the grand scheme of things. Can someone clarify which blood group is the most common? Are there any statistics or something? Like, is it O+ that's the top dog or is it A+? I keep hearing different things when chatting with friends and family. Some say O+ is great for donations, but how does that compare with A or B types? And if someone has a rare blood type, should they worry more during emergencies? Last week, I read this article online saying that blood type can affect health too, but I didn’t dive too deep into it. Honestly, this whole blood group situation is kinda confusing! I mean, in a serious situation, does it matter which blood group is the most common for availability or transfusions? Any thoughts would be super helpful because I’m trying to make sense of all this info! Thanks!
