People with type O-negative blood are referred to as

People with type O-negative blood are referred to as universal donors. Although if you give type O-negative blood to any patient, you run the risk of a transfusion reaction due to certain antibodies present in the blood. However, any patient can receive a transfusion of O-negative red blood cells. Only 7.2% of the American population have O-negative blood. If 7 people appear at random to give blood, what is the probability that at least one of them is a universal donor? Give your answer to four decimal places.
