The Red Cross Needs Your Blood!
(Concord, NH) - The American Red Cross say not enough people are donating blood and that widespread misconceptions about blood donation may be contributing to a shrinking blood donor population.
Blood Donation in Salt Lake City, Utah 2015
An international movement is underway to combat the trend, calling on new donors and those who have not given in a while to help ensure that blood remains available for patients.
The "Missing Types" campaign is targeting the need for types A, B and O, the main blood groups.
During the campaign, the Red Cross brand will remove those letters in an effort to get people to donate blood before the letters A, B and O are missing from hospital shelves.
