Blood Shortage Crisis in Maine | Portland Maine News
Description
Blood donations are plummeting—down 25% in June—and hospitals are in urgent need, especially for platelets and rare blood types like O positive and B negative. With blood having a short shelf life, consistent donations are critical. Central Maine Medical Center’s third annual blood drive, sparked by last year’s tragic shooting, runs through July 31st across Maine. Make an appointment via the Blood Donor App, RedCrossBlood.org, or 1-800-RED-CROSS—and get a free Fandango movie ticket for donating before the deadline. Your donation could literally save a life.
