Voluntary Blood Donations in Ciego de Avila
Monday, October 5, 2015

Havana.- The eastern Cuban province of Ciego de Avila stood up for its voluntary blood donations to the health system, with 10,000 donations from January to date.

Health authorities are working together with NGOs to capture a larger number of donors and maintain the continuity of the process.

Also in the said period, the territory gave 2,425 liters of plasma for the production of pharmaceutical blood byproducts.

At present, 139 are active donors to whom the plasmapheresis method is performed to extract blood and process the white and red blood cells separated from the plasma.

In Cuba, the blood used in the health system comes entirely from voluntary donors, 46 -15 provincial and 31 municipal banks, as well as 168 collection centers.
