NJ Blood Services Urgently Looking For Blood Donations

  MONMOUTH COUNTY – Due to the coronavirus, the New Jersey Blood Services are low on blood supplies and are urgently asking individuals to donate blood.

  Blood products have a shelf life between five to 42 days, so it’s necessary to constantly replenish products.

  Every day, patients depend on the transfusion of red blood cells, platelets and plasma to stay alive and they rely on volunteers to donate blood.

  To donate blood or for information, visit nybloodcenter.org or call 1-800-933-2566.
