The Food and Drug Administration is set to relax blood donation restrictions for gay and bisexual men after years of barring many of them from giving blood, The Washington Post reported Thursday.

Men who are now eligible to donate blood will likely have to wait until the end of 2023 to do so, according to The Post, as the FDA makes final changes after a period of public comment.

Despite media reports on the likely changes, some LGBT advocates are waiting to celebrate until they see the new guidance themselves. Cole Williams, 22, a nursing and political science student at the University of Cincinnati and the founder oftold Insider he would welcome any decreases in discriminatory policies but hoped changes would focus on more individualized risks, including the type of sex in which donors are engaging instead of a blanket adjustment to the existing gendered policy.

"Any step forward with less restrictive policies is a win," he said."But I don't expect the policy will be completely gone away." "HIV is not a disease that only targets the queer community and queer men. Anyone can have it," Williams added."So saying a heterosexual individual is completely free from the risk while all queer people are subject to high risk, that's just not accurate science."
