On today’s Mael Time Podcast, we go inside Magen David Adom, Israel’s national emergency medical service and the backbone of the country’s blood supply. Uri Shacham joins us for a rare, unfiltered conversation about how MDA predicts emergency calls in real time, deploys lifesaving teams within minutes, and navigated the overwhelming chaos of the October 7th attacks. He tackles public misconceptions, explains the organization’s legal obligations and commitment to transparency, and highlights how community support keeps Israel’s medical response system functioning under immense pressure. This episode is a gripping look at the people and systems that keep Israel alive when every second counts.
