Impacts from storms have caused our national blood inventory to drop to concerning levels. Whole blood, plasma & platelet donations are critical for saving lives. We are asking donors to book & keep their appts or look for appts that are open today. Book: https://t.co/7H9shagyXR

There is an immediate need for donors.

Heavy snowfall, extreme cold, and icy conditions in many parts of Canada over the last few days have wiped out the opportunity to collect blood, plasma, and platelet donations.

Donors are needed now. Book at https://t.co/lI8ULXgKYV

Here’s how countries are doing with respect to plasma collection:

🇺🇸: >100% (60% of 🌎 plasma collections)
🇩🇪: >100%
🇦🇹: >100%
🇨🇿: >100%
🇭🇺: >100%

🇨🇦: 15%
🇦🇺: 52%
🇫🇷: <50%
🇧🇪: 45%
🇪🇸: 33%
🇳🇿: 88%

The latter make up their deficits through imports (mostly 🇺🇸)

So excited to have this program going on the island. It was great to work with EHS to get this implemented. So many rural communities will be better served.

O-negative blood levels are low. Meanwhile, somewhere in Canada, someone needs blood to survive.

As a universal donor, you can make a lifesaving difference.

Insecure leaders ridicule others. Secure leaders laugh at themselves.

Great leaders take their work seriously, but don't take themselves too seriously.

The ability to make fun of yourself is a mark of humility and a catalyst for learning from mistakes.
