Saving a life by giving blood!
Summary
Every pint of
blood can save up to three lives. These are facts you cannot deny. Too bad,
that the blood donation has been decreased with seven percent. While there is a
very interesting solution, donate at your workplace, it doesn’t happen very
often. In 2011 workplaces donated 16% of all the blood, this was given by
approximately 1500 persons. The NHSBT (National Health Service Blood and
Transplant) would love to see an increase of 30% before the Olympic Games. Only
in North Wales and England need 7000 units of blood a day, and that is only for
the general treatments and operation, so the emergency’s aren’t even taken into
account. All the NHSBT can do is hoping for an increase. Words: 121
Opinion
When I hear this,
I am not pleased at all. I am a blood donator and an organ donator, because I
think it is a noble thing to do. It takes maybe half an hour and you are taken
care of, you get drinks and food and enough time to recover. They test you very
well, your blood-condition is tested and they look for things like leukemia and
other kinds of illness. I don’t understand why people don’t give this little
time and effort for men’s health. I hope this article will give other people
the thought that this is a good thing to do, and that you can give other people
life by giving a little bit of your blood. Words:
