One of the many repercussions of the pandemic here in Canada (and
most likely everywhere else too) is a shortage in our blood supply.
Blood and blood components are needed to help people with various
medical conditions (including those with blood cancers), for surgery,
and for emergency situations, like during childbirth or after a car
accident. When there isn’t enough blood to go around, the consequences
are devastating. So today’s post is to ask you to please consider
donating blood, if you can. You’ll be rewarded with the warm sense of
having done some good in the world (and a cookie). Your local vampires
would approve 
For more information on donating blood:
Canadian Blood Services: https://www.blood.ca/en
Société canadienne du sang: https://www.blood.ca/fr
American Red Cross: https://www.redcrossblood.org/
NHS Blood Services: https://www.blood.co.uk/
If your local agency isn’t listed, try doing an online search for blood services in your country/region.
(By the way, veterinary clinics need blood too. Find out more here, or search for pet blood donations in your local area: https://www.canadiananimalbloodbank.ca/#!cabb )
Wishing you a bloody good day…
