Why is a false positive more significant in HIV testing of patients than in screening donated blood for transfusions?

A. It isn't-both are equally dangerous/significant. False-positives in PEOPLE can lead to psychological trauma, but false-positives in BLOOD could lead to the useful blood being disposed. B.
