Urgent call for O negative blood as stocks plummet
Do you know your own blood type?
It is actually more common than you think for people not to know their own blood type. John Stanley chats with Cath Stone, the Executive Director of Donor Services at Australia Red Cross’ Lifeblood services.
Lifeblood is urging people to donate blood, especially over the next fortnight, as right now, half of all appointments are being cancelled due to coronavirus isolation requirements.
Eleven million Australians are currently eligible to donate blood. To find out if you are eligible or to book an appointment call 13 14 95, visit lifeblood.com.au or download the free, Donate Blood app.
