Blood supplies in France, and in particular in Occitania, have reached an unprecedented level of alert in recent days. The French Blood Establishment (EFS) called last week, all those who can to donate blood. The Regional Health Agency is fully committed alongside the EFS to encourage each and every one of us to donate blood.
Let’s mobilize regularly to meet together the goal of 1000 donations per day in Occitania.
The seriousness of the current situation has led the French Blood Establishment to issue a “vital emergency bulletin” for the very first time in its history. This means that the situation is critical! It is really vital for many patients and for the healthcare teams who take charge of their health.
Each donation is essential, but donors do not always measure the importance of this gesture of solidarity. The French Blood Establishment and the Occitanie Regional Health Agency will together recall 5 very concrete good reasons that call us all to donate our blood. Test your knowledge.
