Rejected petition Allow homosexual men to donate blood

With blood donations at an incredibly low level it is important to allow all individuals to donate blood. Although the donation of blood is a vital part of saving lives it seems ludicrous that homosexual men are still unable to donate blood.

Married homosexual men that are in long term relationships are also prevent due to the risk of infection. It seem crazy that any heterosexual promiscuous individual I are allowed to donate this life saving gift. This seems to be totally unfair.
