A+ blood needed now, says the Red Cross

People with type A-positive blood have been urged by the Hong Kong Red Cross to donate blood. The Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service said that because of a recent significant increase in demand for blood, it needed about 1,000 people to donate blood every day. And there was a particular need for type A-positive blood donors. The public can call the Blood Transfusion Service hotline on 2710 1234 for further information.
