AUSTRALIAN RED CROSS LIFEBLOOD
THE AUSTRALIAN RED CROSS LIFEBLOOD SAYS “AUSTRALIA NEEDS 7000 BLOOD DONORS BY THE END OF NOVEMBER TO ENSURE A HEALTHY SUPPLY”.
BLOOD DEMAND IS AT A 10 YEAR HIGH AND “NO SHOWS” HAVE RISEN TO HALF OF ALL BLOOD DONATION APPOINTMENTS. LIFEBLOOD’S RESERVES OF TYPE ‘O NEGATIVE’ BLOOD ARE BEING CHALLENGED AS THESE DONORS HAVE FALLEN DURING THE PANDEMIC. ‘O NEGATIVE’ IS THE UNIVERSAL BLOOD TYPE THAT CAN BE GIVEN TO ANYONE IN AN EMERGENCY SUCH AS THOSE INVOLVED IN ROAD ACCIDENTS. SO BLOOD DONORS ARE NEEDED NOW TO BOOST SUPPLIES.
