Almost 40% of the population has O+ blood.
Patients with Type O blood must receive Type O blood.
About half of all blood ordered by hospitals in our area is Type O.
Type O blood is the universal blood type and is the only blood type that can be transfused to patients with other blood types.
Only about 7% of all people have Type O negative blood.
Type O negative blood is the preferred type for accident victims and babies needing exchange transfusions.
There is always a need for Type O donors because their blood may be transfused to a person of any blood type in an emergency.
So O+ Blood group is not only a Good and also a Great Blood group.

i don't think there are better or worse of the blood types. i think they are the same. type A, typeB, type AB and type O are just different kind of blood. they all good.
