The blood bank (Unit Tabung Darah) of Hospital Raja Permaisuri Bainun (HRPB) is appealing to the public, especially those with type O blood, to do a blood donation due to the high demand.
The HRPB blood bank said on its Facebook page that type O blood supply needs to be increased in view of high demand at the hospital.
“Donors, please come to the blood bank of HRPB Ipoh as soon as possible or attend any nearby blood donation campaign.
“Donors can also come to Aeon Station 18 and Aeon Kinta City supermarkets this Saturday and Sunday,” it said.
The public can call 05-2085245 for further inquiries regarding blood donation programs on weekends.
However, blood donors must comply with the condition in which the interval from the previous donation date must be more than three months.
