The American Red Cross is experiencing an emergency blood shortage. Blood and platelet donations are needed right now!
Over the last 20 years, the number of people donating blood has fallen by more than 40 percent. This year, it's the lowest number ever.
That has a huge impact on the availability on blood products and dramatic consequences for people who need blood.
All blood types are needed, but platelet donors and type O blood donors are urgently needed.
Type O positive is the most transfused blood type and the universal blood type.
