Hospitals in the Pacific Northwest and across the nation are facing an urgent need for blood donations.
Health officials report that adverse weather conditions in the United States are causing a significant decrease in donations.
Bloodworks Northwest is preparing to send blood donations to the areas most affected by the severe storms.
The organization has issued a Red Code Alert following a drastic decline in donations, as blood centers urgently require universal O blood type.
According to Bloodworks Northwest, more than 23,000 appointments are available until Valentine’s Day.
