Vitalant blood donation

Vitalant is facing an emergency shortage of type O blood. All donors, especially those with type O,  are urged to make an appointment now to give in the coming days and weeks.

• The supply of type O recently dropped to an 18-month low and must be replenished immediately to avoid delays in patient care.
• Type O is critical for patients because of its universal use in life-or-death situations.
• O-negative can be transfused to patients of any blood type and is what emergency room doctors reach for when every second counts. O-positive can support anyone with a positive blood type.

• Approximately 46% of the population has type O blood to give and help overcome the short 

We currently have a 1-2 day supply of blood for all other blood types.
