The Delegation of Health in Errachidia now has an adequate blood supply, and organizers will continue the campaign in other areas throughout the province.

Rabat – Residents of Errachidia, in eastern central Morocco, have shown solidarity and generosity, making significant contributions to a blood donation campaign.
Authorities launched the campaign a few days ago to support health services during a shortage of vital blood reserves in the province’s hospitals.
The campaign contributes to strengthening the bloodstock available at Errachidia’s blood transfusion center and complies with health and safety standards.
Reserves of blood are especially important in light of Morocco’s growing outbreak of the new coronavirus.
The campaign is an opportunity to express solidarity within Moroccan society. It is also a key opportunity to raise awareness on the importance of blood transfusions for saving lives, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
