Original title: Wuhan City Blood Bank is in a hurry! Call on citizens to actively participate in unpaid blood donation
On April 5, the Wuhan Municipal People's Government Citizen Blood Donation Leadership Group issued an urgent initiative calling on citizens aged 18 to 55, who are healthy and eligible for blood donation, to actively participate in unpaid blood donation to protect the life-saving blood needs of Wuhan medical institutions.
The proposal pointed out that at present, the medical treatment of patients with non-new coronary pneumonia in Wuhan is gradually returning to the right track. The number of outpatients and hospitalizations are constantly rising. Leukemia patients, maternal, tumor and various surgical patients urgently need blood to save lives. During the epidemic prevention and control period, the amount of blood collected in Wuhan has dropped significantly, and clinical blood is facing great pressure. The city's blood is in short supply and the blood bank is in an emergency.
According to the introduction of the Wuhan Blood Center, during the epidemic, the citizens were all isolated at home due to the need for prevention and control, and the number of people traveling on the street fell like a cliff. Wuhan Blood Center recruits blood donors by private car. Only 30 people participate in blood donation on the street every day.
Under the unified dispatch of the National Health and Health Commission, from February 1 to March 24, Hunan, Henan, Anhui, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Yunnan and other provinces assisted nearly 30,000 bags of blood products in Wuhan, meeting 90% of Wuhan ’s clinical demand. 1422 sachets of platelet assistance met 30% of the clinical needs of Wuhan, and local loving citizens in Wuhan donated platelets retrogradely during the epidemic, meeting 70% of the clinical needs.
"The demand for blood transfusion in the future will be much greater than this amount." The relevant person in charge of the Wuhan Blood Center said that as the hospital gradually resumed diagnosis and treatment, the amount of outpatients and hospitalization continued to rise, and the blood demand increased day by day. It is necessary for the caring citizens of Wuhan to take the lead to help clinical patients survive their life difficulties. In order to facilitate the public's love, Wuhan Blood Center has specially launched an on-site appointment service. Residents can sign up for the Solitaire through WeChat group, and the blood donation car will drive into the community and community to maximize the convenience for caring citizens.
The blood collection points on the streets of Wuhan Blood Center have all been resumed. In the past week, the average daily blood volume was about 70 people and about 20,000 ml. The person in charge of Wuhan Blood Center appealed that the average daily blood demand of major hospitals in Wuhan is expected to be about 200,000 ml per day, and 800 people need to donate blood for free every day.
