Debra BenAvram: Every Two Seconds – Someone Needs Blood

Debra BenAvram, Chief Executive Officer at AABB,  shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Every two seconds, someone needs blood.

A trauma patient being rushed to the ER.

A mother fighting to survive childbirth.

A child with sickle cell disease. A cancer patient making it through another round of treatment.

They are all counting on a stranger they will never meet, someone who cared enough to roll up their sleeve.

Blood can’t be manufactured. It can only be generously donated.

And here’s the thing: it’s the blood already on the shelf that saves lives. When the ER doors fly open, there’s no time to wait.

Hospitals depend on a steady, reliable supply which means they depend on regular donors, not just one-time heroes.

So if you’re already a blood donor, thank you.

You may never know whose life you changed, but you made a huge difference for someone special.

And if you haven’t yet, or it’s been a while, today is a perfect day to make it part of your regular routine.

Find a location near you.”
