NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA - The Red Cross in our area reports a shortage in its supply due to recent winter storms. Officials say they only have two or three more days worth of blood. If donations continue to decline, they may have to ask hospitals to postpone some surgeries.
Eligible donors must be at least 17 years old, weigh at least 110 lbs. and be in general good health. A 16-year-old may donate with parents' permission.
For more information on donating, call 1-800-432-8045 ext. 2150 or visit | |
