Latest news on the Cork based Irish Blood Transfusion Service Board

Blood stock levels in Cork hospitals are reducing daily towards a critical level. That's according to the Cork based Irish Blood Transfusion Service Board, which covers the entire Munster region. Stocks of some blood types are extremely low and they're appealing to regular donors so these stocks can be replenished.The situation has been compounded with the icy weather conditions which is making it impossible for donors to travel to donate blood. Below see days and times of the Irish Blood Transfusion service at St. Finbarr's Hospital, Douglas Road, Cork. Also visit www.giveblood.ie or call 021 4807 400.
