Basal Cell Carcinoma

Must not donate if:
a) Still receiving treatment.

b) Any wound has not healed.

Although basal cell carcinoma is a form of cancer it only spreads locally. As it does not spread by the blood stream it is not a risk to people receiving donated material.

An unhealed wound is a risk for bacteria entering the blood. Bacteria can be a serious threat to anybody receiving donated material. This is because the bacteria can multiply to dangerous levels.
