Blood Supplies Grow as Red Cross Aids Hospitals
Local hospital administrators met with Red Cross officials in Bridgeport to stress that whole blood is indispensable and must be available every day. Since June 1950 hospital use has doubled, with Bridgeport and St. Vincent’s the largest users. 750 pints were distributed April through the Red Cross and local hospitals. Replacement is voluntary and not required, while administration fees are charged by hospitals, not for the blood itself. Blood saves lives and public support strengthens the program.
