In this urgent and informative episode, I speak with a spokesperson from Australian Red Cross Lifeblood about their national callout for blood donors—especially those with O positive, O negative, A positive, and A negative blood types. As we head into winter, Lifeblood is experiencing the lowest O-type levels since 2023, and now A-type donations are also in high demand.

We discuss why O and A blood types are the most frequently used in hospitals, their role in emergency and trauma care, and why donations are so critical right now. With an extra 9,500 O-type donations needed this week alone, and growing concern for A-type stocks, your support has never been more vital.

🩸 In this episode:

• Why O negative is the universal blood type used in emergencies

• How A-type donors are urgently needed to support ongoing care

• What first-time donors can expect

• Why just one hour of your time could help save multiple lives

Whether you’re a regular donor or considering your first visit, this episode will inspire you to take action and give the gift of life.
