What is BCCT?

BCCT is British Chamber of Commerce. The message was originally broadcat by them prior to posting here.

I have spoken to the bloodbank tonight and they now have the b- required. However, if anyone of that group would like to call them they are very

grateful to take contact numbers in case a similar need arises in future.

Thank you to all and a special thanks to George and his administrators who reacted so quickly and kept bumping it back to the top.

Many thanks.

Should have asked for O negative blood also.Can give to everyone.

I am B-, but saw the threat too late. Will call and get on the list of potential donors for the future.

This blood group is virtually non-existent here (and rare in the West, too).

Asians are so predominantly Rhesus positive that most of them don't even know what they are and that a +/- exists ...

Moving off-topic Iknow... but I am B-. And, we are a rare breed here in Asia. I am just in the process of moving from Bangkok to Pattaya. Does anyone know if either of the hospitals in Pattaya maintains a register of people who are in the rare blood types, or asks for periodic donations ?
