Blood shortage bites harder with only 25% of transfusion demand met yearly
3 years agoThe World Health Organization has recommended a minimum of 1% of a country’s population to participate in blood donations. However, In Nigeria, we are not able to even meet this minimum requirement.
As Nigeria joins the rest of the globe to mark World Blood Donor Day (WBDD) today, June 14, very little has changed in terms of the supply shortage facing her over 200 million population.
