摘要:The systematic exclusion of LGBTQIA+ from screening for blood donation does not have an absolute medical justification, since the tests used for blood selection have strict criteria. The present work aims to analyze the National Blood Donation Policy with regard to the LGBTQIA+ population considering in particular the profile of blood donors in relation to risk behavior of contracting Sexually Transmitted Infections regarding gender and sexuality. A bibliographical survey was carried out on the evolution of public blood donation policies in Brazil and in the world between 1970 and 2020, with 90 scientific articles selected. Despite the coercive action of the judiciary, which recognized that the ordinances of the Ministry of Health and the National Health Surveillance Agency were discriminatory in relation to blood donations by the non-heterosexual population, it cannot be said that this is a sufficient condition to mitigate prejudice and the stereotypes that befall this population.
