Residual risk of human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis C, and hepatitis B following implementation of sexual risk behavior‐based screening in Canada

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In 2022, Canadian Blood Services implemented a gender‐neutral sexual behavior‐based screening (SBBS) approach to donor deferral, replacing time‐based criteria targeting gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (gbMSM) and female partners of gbMSM. We assessed the impact of this policy change on human immunodeficiency virus (
