BLOOD DONATION

• There is no substitute for blood.As on today, we cannot replicate blood by synthesis.There is no artificial blood.
• The only way to generate blood is by our bodies. And the only way to supplement blood reserve is by blood donation.
• Blood donation can save lives. It is a ‘noble’ act.
• If you want somebody else to donate blood when you are in need of it, then it is your duty to donate blood when someone else needs it.
• Our body contains 5000 ml of blood circulating in the body; and only 350 ml is drawn during blood donation. This donated blood gets replenished in the body with normal diet.
• A man can donate blood, with a gap of three months, and a woman after four months.
• Blood donation is not accepted from anybody who is suffering from HIV, Hepatitis C, VD or any other communicable diseases.
