Funny, Thai's ask for help for the person who caused this but no request to help the victims on the bus.

Maybe because there is a need for the blood this lady requires and no need for blood for some of the other victims?

Us against them again?

O+ is very common I am O+

on the other hand O- is rare I wonder if it's not a mistake since every time a blood is urgently needed it is O-

O positive is very common amongst Asians. A few years back I fell and broke my hip needing an operation. I am O+. Unfortunately this was over the New Year and the hospital had run out of O+ blood due to the number of emergencies being dealt with over this period. As they would not perform the operation without spare blood being available I had to wait several days until new supplies were obtained.

yes my thoughts also, as i am O+ very common, (yeah like me)

Maybe, apart from the car driver, they've had all the help that they need? Are you suggesting that the lady who allegedly caused the accident should be denied life-saving treatment?

When i needed blood after my accident, hospital told my wife your husband needs blood go and find donors to help.

They were not interested in blood group only 4 units for your husband find 4 donors.

That is a good way to keep blood supplies topped up.
