The nurse asked the rabbit, "What's your blood type?"

"I'm probably a type O," he replied.

Do people say type (number) one/zero? I’ve always heard it as Type (Letter) O.

Cos you’ve got stuff like type A and B.

Wikipedia says:

Type O is often called 0 (zero, or null) in other languages.

It's either A, B, AB or none of it, so zero/null.

The Wikipedia quote is misleading - some European countries used zero/null but it was agreed that the prevailing usage should be the letter O.

Apparently, it was originally C and changed later, too.

Norway does a weird mix

Denmark uses zero

Haven't bothered looking up the rest of Europe, but the links to other languages on https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABO_blood_group_system are a mix of both O and 0.
