Blood Crisis Hits Nationwide | Nashville News

Published 3 weeks, 6 days ago
Description

The American Red Cross is sounding the alarm over a nationwide blood crisis — the second in its 145-year history — forcing hospitals to cancel surgeries and straining emergency care. With summer’s “100 Deadly Days” bringing more accidents and fewer donors, critical patients from new moms to cancer fighters are at risk. Blood banks like Blood Assurance in Middle Tennessee are running on less than two days’ supply, leaving no room for error. One donation can save up to three lives — and it takes time to process. The plea? Don’t wait for disaster — give now. All blood types are needed, but O negative and AB are especially vital. You might be eligible even if you’ve had chemotherapy or have a controlled condition.
