Today, 11.11.2011, I, as a member of Seeds of Hope Laos, conduct a group blood donation at the Lao Blood Transfusion Center. 28 people joined us. Sadly, a few of them are unable to donate due to low-high blood pressure.
The Head of the Donation Unit said that the demand for blood is about 1,800 bags / month, but it is very unfortunate that the supply they can offer is only 1300 - 1400 / month. The nurses there also recruit themselves to donate at a certain period.
