How interesting!

The new blood types are called Langereis (positive or negative) and Junior (positive or negative). Most of us are positive for these proteins but there's a small but now-recognizable population who are negative, particularly among the Japanese and European Gypsies.

It will now be possible to identify Langereis-matched and/or Junior-matched blood for those who need them for transfusions.
