"Help Us” – pleads the National Blood Centre (PDN) to Malaysians as the reserves of blood types A and B are running dangerously low.
PDN revealed that the shortage is due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic that has affected the frequency of periodic blood donations that has been vital in keeping the blood supply adequate for use in the healthcare system.
