Florida’ s Blood Centers Looking For Hispanic Donors
Tagged: FloridaPosted on: September 24th, 2007“When News 13 dropped by the blood center around 9 a.m. Monday, the shelves had plenty of O-positive and A blood types, but not much of O-negative.
“We really can’t keep enough blood supply on hand, and the reason O-negative is so needed is because it’s the Universal Donor Type blood,” said Pat Michaels, of Florida’s Blood Centers.
“(We want) the Hispanic community to know that and understand that their blood is gold, and it’s a way to give back to the community,” said Millie Irizarry, of Florida’s Blood Centers.”
