If you are of the A negative or O negative blood type, the
Singapore Red Cross needs your help.
The blood bank needs donations of these blood types, as there
has been a high usage by several victims of the recent Jarkarta
bomb blasts.
This resulted in significant depletion of the national
stockpiles, which needs to be ramped up by at least 50 units of
each of these two types of blood.
Less than one per cent of the Singapore population has negative
blood types, which are typically found among Caucasians and
Indians.
All healthy individuals who belong to the rare A-negative and
O-negative blood types, between 18 and 60 years, weighing at least
45kg, are encouraged to come forward.
