Blood shortage

There have been many consequences caused by COVID-19 and that includes a blood shortage. Dr. Mark Mathias from CentraCare joined me on WJON this week. He says the shortage of blood available is the worst it's been the past 20 or 30 years.

The need for blood and platelet donation has become even greater.

An emergency blood shortage is prompting the Red Cross to issue an urgent call for donors of all blood types (especially type O) to give now & help save lives.
