食品和药物管理局(Food and Drug Administration,以下简称FDA)捐赠资格指导说,在过去五年内和同性发生性关系的男人在捐赠特定组织时“应该”被判定为“不合格的”捐赠者,因为他们的一些行为是存在“危险因素”的。
“My initial feeling was just very angry because I couldn’t understand why my 16-year-old son’s eyes couldn’t be donated just because he was gay,” Moore said, according to KCCI.
“最开始我感觉非常愤怒,我无法理解儿子的眼睛无法捐献仅仅因为他是同性恋。”据KCCI报道,摩尔如是说。
The FDA’s guidance reflects its ban on blood from men who have sex with men. That policy is a by-product of the AIDS crisis that ripped through the gay men’s community decades ago.
FDA的规定表明这是为了禁止和同性产生性行为的血液。这项政策是数十年之前在男同性恋群体中爆发的艾滋危机的副产品。
The FDA explains: Men who have had sex with men “at any time since 1977 (the beginning of the AIDS epidemic in the United States) are currently deferred as blood donors” because “a history of male-to-male sex is associated with an increased risk for exposure to and transmission of certain infectious diseases, including HIV.”
FDA解释说,和同性发生性行为的男人“自1977年(美国艾滋病流行的开始)起就被禁止献血”,因为“同性之间的性行为提高了某些特定传染性疾病的传播几率,包括艾滋病。”
