The number of blood donors in Timişoara has doubled, after the start of the „Blood for Ukraine” campaign.
Every day, about 200 people from all over the county donate blood to the Timișoara Blood Transfusion Center. In order to cope with the large number of donors, the Transfusion Center in Timișoara has extended the operating program by three and a half hours since the beginning of March, says director Rodica Lighezan. If one chooses to donate blood, he needs to be rested and well hydrated, does not smoke an hour before donation, and does not consume alcohol, fats, concentrated sweets, does not take aspirin, anticoagulants, antidiabetics, and have an act of identity./opopescu
