Blood and platelet donors needed to keep up supply
Blood and platelet donations continue to be needed over the summer by the American Red Cross. All blood types are needed, especially those with type O blood and platelets.
A news release said more than a quarter of all blood products each year are used in critical care and emergency room cases.
A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals 17 years old in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in general good health may be eligible to donate.
