Mississippi Blood Services: Less than one day’s worth of blood left

Therese Apel

Spread the word! January is National Blood Donor Month, and we are celebrating the amazing impact blood donors have on our communities. Join us in raising awareness and encouraging others to donate blood.

The holidays combined with the recent cold weather throughout the South has had a critical impact on the current blood supply for the state, according to Mississippi Blood Services.  There is less than one day’s supply left on the shelves.

They are in desperate need for the following types:

  • O Negative
  • O Positive
  • B Negative
  • B Positive
  • A Negative

If you are A Positive or AB Positive, please go in to donate platelets!

Call Mississippi Blood Services at (601) 368-2673 or go to www.msblood.com to find a blood drive near you.
