Nonprofit Vitalant is urging all eligible blood donors to make an appointment to give now for the coming days and weeks to boost the blood supply for patients in need. Vitalant announced an emergency shortage of type O blood in last week.  The need remains especially critical for type O, which is the most transfused blood type. O-negative can be used to help any patient and O-positive can help any patient with A-positive, B-positive, AB-positive or O-positive blood. Donors of all blood types, especially those with type O, are urged to make an appointment at vitalant.org, download and use the Vitalant app or call 877-25-VITAL (877-258-4825).
