Blood Centers of America, a blood center resource-sharing organization, reported on Wednesday hospitals need 1,650 units of blood that are not available due to the national shortage.
As the wet weather continues, the demand for blood at hospitals increases due to weather related accidents and other trauma and pediatric cases.
So the Central California Blood Center is asking all eligible blood donors, to please give at donor centers in Fresno and Visalia.
