Blood Transfusion.?

Do people win tested for HIV before blood transfusions, because if a personality had it previously the transfusion they can say they get it at transfusion. I know they do run tests formerly accepting donors blood but there is other that grace period until hiv shows up within the blood. And donors can lie in the order of their history.
A patient will not carry tested for HIV before a blood transfusion (unless for some bloody extenuating circumstance). I've given hundreds of blood transfusions and never come across having to peak the recipient for any disease prior to the transfusion -- simply a cross clash (for every patient). A patient *could* feign about their med Hx, claiming they received HIV or Hep C, (or whatever) from a blood transfusion, but it would be impossible to prove so there'd be no point. Blood, in opposition is screened at masses stages, but no sample of a blood product of any features is routinely held (stored) to protect against litigious patients. What is recorded, however, is the lot number of the donor example. From that, it may be possible to track down the donor (if still alive) ... even then, the donor would hold to consent to an examination of his or her medical documents post hoc (i.e. after donation).
