MDA critically low on blood, urges donations
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleMagen David Adom says it is critically low on several kinds of blood, including O-, A-, B- and O+ due to the ongoing heatwave and many Israelis traveling over the summer vacation.
The emergency medical organization is calling on the public to make a special effort to donate, as blood supply levels have dropped to the point that hospitals are delaying operations.
Blood donations sites nationwide can be found on MDA’s website here (Hebrew link).
Those seeking to donate can also call the organization’s blood donations hotline at 03-530-0400. Large groups can invite a mobile MDA blood donation station to them by calling 03-530-0402/69.
