Urgent call – allergies and accidents ensure blood shortage

Date:

Above average high temperatures and empire again currently lead to a variety of recreational accidents. Because there are still many pollen allergies by donating blood, the Red Cross is now an alarm. Because a canned run is required every 90 seconds in Austria.

An SMS dived on Tuesday morning on the mobile phones of countless Austria. The content: an urgent call to donate blood. Again, there is a shortage of blood gun, because only about 3.35 percent of the domestic population actually regularly donates.

Blood gifts can only be stored for 42 days
And this despite the fact that a canned bar is needed every 90 seconds in the hospitals of Austria – makes a proud sum of 1000 canned goods per day. However, as soon as they have been donated, they can only be stored for a maximum of 42 days. That is also the reason why the Red Cross regularly depends on donations from 18 to 70 -year -old people. A donation is then possible every two months – if a “reward” you get an SMS with the info where the life -processing gift was used.

Dates can be booked online within a few seconds
Currently, the spokeswoman for Rotkreuz Margit Draxl also led the high temperatures to more free accidents. At the same time, however, many donors should not save lives because of their allergies against grass pollen and Co. If you are not sure whether you are and if so, where you can donate blood, you will receive all information about the blood donation and possible agreements for the donation on www.blut.at. Finding and booking an appointment online only takes a few seconds.
