PHUKET: -- Though news of the desperately needed A-negative blood to save the life of a German man produced eight units, more is still needed.

Bernd Langer, 51, was involved in a single vehicle motorcycle crash in Rawai at about 5am on Sunday.

“Witnesses said that Mr Langer fell over while driving his motorcycle,” explained Lt Chollada Chokdeesrijan of the Chalong Police. “He was wearing a helmet at the time of the accident.”

Despite wearing a helmet, Mr Langer was seriously injured and in need of a number of surgeries.

“We have already conducted several operations, during which a lot of blood was lost,” said Ampai Saengwichitr, a medical technologist at Vachira Phuket Hospital. “We are monitoring him to ensure that there are no infections.”
