The Federation notes that for those suffering from Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Disease, blood transfusion is their only treatment and every summer they face blood shortages more acutely than any other season
All polytransfused patients, once again, are faced with blood shortages that are taking on large proportions throughout the country, as a result of which human lives are at risk, as the Hellenic Thalassemia Federation states in its announcement.
The Federation notes that for Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Disease sufferers, blood transfusion is their only treatment and every summer they face blood shortages more acutely than any other season. As he emphasizes, these days thalassemic patients do not receive the necessary amounts of blood required, as a result of which their scheduled transfusions are postponed.
“Our dear friends, the need for blood is great and never on vacation. By donating 10 minutes of your time by donating blood, you are offering life to your fellow human beings who need it so much“, concludes the Hellenic Thalassemia Federation.
