AB, Rh negative recipients may be transfused AB, Rh negative whole blood (rarely used in modern transfusion medicine), any ABO, Rh negative red cells, any ABO, Rh negative platelets (with volume reduction of residual incompatible plasma if the requesting physician is concerned) and only AB fresh frozen plasma. Rh positive cellular blood products may be give to an AB negative recipient IF there are no available Rh negative components, immediate transfusion is required AND there is no preexisting Anti-D (RH) antibodies present in the patients plasma.
Only to other AB blood types
A person with A negative blood can donate blood to a person with A negative blood and a person with AB negative blood.
No - a pos can not donate blood to a negative
It's important for anyone who can donate blood to donate, but the fact is that AB is not a donor for any blood type but its own. AB can only donate to AB. AB is, however, what is referred to as a universal recipient, meaning that someone with type AB blood can receive blood from AB, A, B, and O blood types. This being the case, it wouldn't seem that a shortage of AB blood would be a problem unless there is a generalized blood shortage of all types (which there usually is, so donate if you can spare a pint!)
AB negative, A negative, B negative, O negative. Type AB is a universal receiver.

No - a pos can not donate blood to a negative
An individual who is blood type AB negative can receive any blood type that is negative. Somebody who is O negative can donate blood to anyone.
No, they only can donate to blood types A, and AB.
Humans have 8 blood types: A+ and A- B+ and B- AB+ and AB- O+ and O- all types can receive donations from their individual blood type (for example anyone with A+ can receive and donate to other A+ members) in addition, anyone with A+, A-, B+, and B- can donate to anyone who has AB+ or AB-. O- can receive all types and AB+ can donate to all types
An individual with A- (A negative) blood can safely receive the following blood types during a transfusion:A-O-
Yes. O- can donate to all blood types. O+ can only donate to other positive blood types, including AB+.
B Neg donors can donate to B Pos or B Neg patients.
