Sharon Watson, the American Red Cross Missouri and Arkansas spokesperson, joins the Mark Reardon Show to discuss their need for more blood donations as the summer months approach with Scott Jennings and Joe Arnold.
“As we go into the summer months, we always see a drop in donations. While we have been doing better in recent weeks because things have been stable, we are expecting a big drop as many people start to hit the road for summer vacations, start getting out and doing a lot of those activities,” Watson shared on the importance of donating now.
Later, she commented, “You are always going to be helping people if you’re able to make that blood donation every 56 days. You can do it up to six times a year, so it’s something that if you get into the habit, that’s fantastic! You can keep making that appointment for every 56 days.”
