Cuba Reports Increase in Voluntary Blood Donations |
|
|
Monday, January 19, 2015
Havana.- Cuba reported an increase in voluntary blood donations, as part of actions to guarantee people's good health.
Officials from the Ministry of Public Health pointed out that over the past two years, blood donation plans have been exceeded in Cuba, where 6.525 million people are in conditions to donate blood, as they are between 18 and 65 years old and do not have excluding diseases to perform that humane gesture.
Of that number, 340,000 people donate blood regularly, accounting for about 5 percent of the aforementioned potential.
However, that level is insufficient to meet the country's demand for blood in both medical centers and the blood byproduct industry.
