"Recently, the continuous rain and snow weather and the 'cliff-like' cooling, coupled with the high incidence of respiratory diseases, the number of group blood donations and street blood donors in our city has decreased significantly. On the contrary, the number of people undergoing elective surgery has increased greatly, and the clinical blood volume is running at a high level, and blood security is facing severe difficulties and challenges. ”
On December 15, Shanxi Yuncheng Central Blood Station said in the proposal that blood is an irreplaceable and valuable resource in clinical medical treatment, which can not be artificially manufactured so far, and can only rely on free donations from healthy citizens, and the city needs at least 220 unpaid blood donations every day to basically meet the clinical blood demand. Here, we would like to send a sincere proposal to the city's caring citizens and organizations: the city's citizens and organizations aged 18 to 55, in good health, and eligible for blood donation, hope that you will fully carry forward the spirit of selfless dedication and boundless love, and actively participate in the public welfare undertakings of unpaid blood donation.
Recently, due to the severe cold weather, the number of blood donations has dropped sharply, and many places across the country have called on citizens to donate blood.
For example, the blood station in Weifang Central City, Shandong Province, said that recently, due to multiple factors such as low temperature and snowfall, the number of unpaid blood donors has decreased, the amount of blood collected has decreased, and the blood inventory is tight, and the clinical blood guarantee is facing difficulties and challenges. However, the use of blood in hospitals cannot be stopped, and patients with traumatic hemorrhage, postpartum hemorrhage, burns, surgery, and various blood diseases need to rely on blood to maintain their lives. At least 400 blood donations are needed every day in the city to basically meet the clinical blood demand.
The Propaganda Department of the Xinxiang Municipal Party Committee of Henan Province and the Red Cross Society of Xinxiang City said in the proposal on December 15 that blood donation will be carried out without compensation to convey great love. Recently, affected by the cold weather, the number of people on the street has plummeted, the number of blood donations has decreased significantly, and the winter is a period of high incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and the clinical blood has entered the peak period, and the city's blood inventory has been below the warning line, which has seriously affected the medical treatment of clinical patients and the health protection of the people, and needs support urgently.
The Yueyang Central Blood Station in Hunan Province also said on December 15 that due to the cold weather in winter and the upcoming Spring Festival, the number of unpaid blood donations on the streets of our city has plummeted, and the blood inventory is seriously in short supply. In order to ensure the clinical use of blood in the city in winter and ensure that the people of the city spend a warm and secure winter, at this special moment, we issue a sincere proposal to citizens, friends from all walks of life and social groups: please give full play to the spirit of selfless dedication and life-saving and help the wounded, stretch out your arms, donate blood that can be regenerated, and save lives that cannot be repeated!
