The major parasites with relevance to the blood supply Parasites that pose a risk of transfusion-transmission are largely confined to I Plasmodium i (malaria), I Trypanosoma cruzi i (Chagas disease), and I Babesia i (babesiosis).

We concluded that filariasis poses low transfusion risk and did not recommend strategies against filarial transfusion transmission.[27] How climate change affects local ecosystems Climate change can introduce periodic or permanent local changes in ambient temperature, rainfall patterns, and humidity. While it may be too early to provide specific recommendations to blood operators, we can offer a general recommendation to remain vigilant to climate change, its associated effects on the epidemiology of vector-borne parasites, and how this might impact blood transfusion safety.
