Approx 5000 children r born with #thalessemia a blood disorder in Pakistan 🇵🇰 every yr. They require lifelong blood transfusions every 2 to 5 weeks 2 survive. Because of #lockdown blood donations stood disrupted depleting #bloodbanks reserves. Niece Durriyah signalled an SOS1/5
...we happily agreed 2 donate. Today Pakistan Red Crescent ambulance arrived at our home. Sons Mansoor, Ali, Abbas & nephews Waqas & Nabi gave blood in the ambulance under expert medical supervision. Inquisitive neighbours got informed of this 'a phone call away' facility to 2/5
serve the ailing. A retd Colonel down the street gave commitment of 2 donors. The staff check the donors for age(17 to 60yrs), health, Blood Pressure, Haemoglobin beforehand. Give giveaways thereafter. There is abt 8 days delay before the blood can be administered to patients 3/5
because it has to be checked for presence of Hepatitis B & C, HIV, Malaria or other infectious diseases. Now #Covid_19 aswell. Incase of any contamination it is discarded. The donor is called and counseled and facilitated.1Pint donation can help upto 3 needy patients in the 4/5
form of Platelets, red blood cells and white blood cells. It is medically proven that donating blood is safe and healthy. Most donors say it is a spiritually exhilarating experience. A much needed respite for sure during a depressing pandemic Lockdown. 5/5
