United Blood Services is a blood bank that serves more than 500 hospitals in 18 states. According to their website, a person with type O blood and a negative Rh factor (Rh–) can donate blood to any person with any bloodtype. Their data show that 43 percent of people have type O blood and 15 percent of people have Rh– factor; 52 percent of people have type O or Rh– factor.
