Precautions are necessary for blood transfusion because
There are chances of getting exposed to fatal diseases like hepatitis, AIDS and many other diseases.
And avoid the reactions between antigen and antibodies, which leads to rejection of transfused blood.

Good luck

Answer:

To minimize the chance of an adverse reaction during a transfusion, health care practitioners take several precautions. Before starting the transfusion, usually a few hours or even a few days beforehand, the person is cross-matched with the donor blood (not done for transfusions of plasma or platelets).
