Reserves of all blood components are at a minimum, not only erythrocytes and platelets, but also components that have a longer shelf life, according to the Blood Transfusion Institute of Serbia, which is why they are appealing on citizens to join campaigns to donate blood.

"After more than a year of working in extremely difficult conditions for organized collection of blood from voluntary donors, preferably as many citizens as possible should respond to our daily calls in order to provide the necessary minimum to supply all healthcare institutions that deal with emergencies, patients with severe trauma and the most severe hematological and oncological patients.

We urge companies, state institutions, cultural institutions, schools and universities to join blood donor campaigns of the Blood Transfusion Institute of Serbia and all other transfusion institutions," the Institute appealed on citizens.
