Thais encouraged to donate blood for holiday injuries

 

 

BANGKOK, 19 December 2016 (NNT) - The National Blood Center of the Thai Red Cross Society encouraged Thais to help save lives by donating blood on the occasion of the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s birthday on December 5th. 

According to the National Blood Center, blood donations can be done throughout the month of December at the National Blood Center and public hospitals across the country. 

More blood supplies are needed as the number of life-threatening injuries increase significantly during the New Year holiday. 

To help raise this awareness, a radio show, ‘Green Wave,’ invited its fans to donate their blood for a good cause and as a tribute to the late King. 

Regionally, people are able to make blood donations at the provincial office of the National Blood Center and local hospitals. For more information please call 02-256-4300 or 02-263-9600-99 and dial the extension number 1101.

Why don't the police do something to stop the spilled blood?

I am to old to give blood only advice (with a grain of salt) I guess if the accident wars cannot be stopped its best to build up the barricades and hunker down.

First recipient will probably be the motorbike mobile phone gamer pictured in this newsletter release.  Stock up.

They should go to the Universities; they could collect hundreds of samples everyday.

I doubt there will be enough to go round over the New Year.

It would be inferior to Thai blood. Any Thai who realised they had just received a transfusion of farang blood would likely die of shock!
