I believe in the US, these are Red Cross rules. I'm not sure if some agency of the US government has forced the Red Cross to adopt these rules.

Thanks, over here you are asked if you have visited any of the listed countries in the last x amount of time, and are told you cannot donate if you have. Not sure on time scales after a visit, but they are in place here.

Is this a US blood donation directive? In the UK blood screening for "at risk" countries is already in place.
