There is a shortage of blood in Medellín, which in many cases means losing lives, which is why the network of banks of this vital liquid is asking citizens for support in obtaining sufficient supplies to assist the number of patients who need a transfusion.
The blood bank network of the Colombian Red Cross has called for blood donation, as this activity has been reduced by 30% during the year 2022.
Therefore, the call is to give 20 minutes of your time to help those in need of this vital component.
There are 12 blood banks in Antioquia, nine of them in Medellín.
