A guy who works as a PCW at the hospital told a friend that people with O- blood are sterile. I don't want to believe him, because that doesn't make a lot of sense. But my friend is really worried about this, as he is O-.
PCW's (personal care workers) are people who help the patients with partial mobility (elderly or sergical patients) bathe, eat, use the toilet, etc.

Considering O- is the most common blood type, that would mean a lot more people would be sterile then there are, so no.

No! Having O- blood does not make one sterile in any way. Having Kleinfelter's (XXY chromosomes) or Cartagener's syndrome (lack of motile cilia) will make you sterile as a man and having Turner's syndrome (XO chromosome abnormality) will make a woman sterile. Perhaps he saw this XO syndrome and misinterpretted it. Tell him not to worry and to see his family doctor for reassurance.

No. All that is is the type of blood he has. Helps to know if you need a blood transfusion.

I wouldn't think so, seeing as how my son's daddy is O-. Take it how you will but I certainly got pregnant some how by him, so I think that would take care of that myth pretty well.
