Mangaluru, Jan 6: The Red Cross and other government and private hospital blood banks are facing an acute shortage of blood. Blood banks depend on organizations of blood donors, relatives of patients etc for their requirement of blood.
Normally blood donation camps are organized in the district on Sundays. The blood so collected is provided to any of the blood banks. But during the last week, no such camps were held because of Christmas, gram panchayat elections, New Year celebrations etc. Wenlock Blood Bank head, Dr Sharath Kumar, said that shortage of plasma and platelets will continue for four to five days more as blood donation camps were not held last week.
