In recognition of the national scope of blood banking and the need for the utmost care to insure the safety of the blood supply, the Act rejects the locality rule and instead requires a blood bank physician to practice in accordance with the state of the art.
We glean from these statements only that legislators assumed that blood transferors, referred to as physicians and hospitals, were shielded under the law because they act in good faith and exercise due care in transferring blood to the extent of their knowledge.
