NEW: Traffic accidents might strain blood banks

Online Reporter

The local blood bank may struggle to meet demand due to high traffic accidents during the festive season.

The National Blood Service of Zimbabwe (NBSZ) has since called for more blood donations to boost the country’s blood bank.

“Owing to high road accidents already recorded to date, we urge the public to continuously donate blood so that we have adequate blood for every individual in need of blood and for accidents patients,” said NBSZ communications officer Mr Kudakwashe Chidziya.

“We have set a total collection of 6 960 blood units for this festive season.”
