Thu Minh 21:05, 2016/03/24
In response to “National Blood Donation Day” (April 7), the country targets to collect a minimum of 120,000 blood units, accounting for 10% of blood needed this year, from about 200,000 voluntary blood donors during April.
Provinces and cities across the country have planned an array of activities to respond “National Blood Donation Day” (April 7) to raise public awareness of the necessity of non-remunerated blood donation, as well as to encourage people to give blood to save lives.
Besides, the localities will hold communication campaigns on local media to provide people with basic information on blood and the benefits of blood donations.

 
Provinces and cities nationwide will also make it clear that blood donation is safe and is not harmful to people’s health.
A network of social clubs for blood donors and those with rare blood types, as well as blood banks, will be encouraged and expanded at local level.
In addition, individuals who make regular blood donations will be honoured.
