Urgent Call for Blood Donors ๐Ÿฉธthroughout Thailand

All Donations, All Blood Types, are important and will save a life ๐Ÿ’

However, Rh-Negative is EXTREMELY Rare in the Thai Population. Almost impossible to find. Relatively common in the Western population. It must come from expats.

A- Bangkok

O - Bangkok

A- Rayong

O- Phuket

O- Chiang Mai

O- Ubon Ratchathani

Donor Eligibility criteria is pinned on my page. I am an Expat Volunteer.

The PRIMARY criteria are:

โœ” Under 60 if first-time donor in Thailand. 70 is upper age

โœ” No alcohol 24 hours prior

โœ” Healthy low-fat meal at least three hours prior to donating

People from the United Kingdom ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง, France ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท and Ireland ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช who lived in the vCJD "mad cow disease" time-frame from 1980-1996 are Welcomed Back at the National Blood Centre in Bangkok on Henri Dunant Rd and Chiang Mai Red Cross ONLY. Special processing for these donors.

Please review donor qualifications and if you have any questions, message me.

Thank you for Giving the Gift of Life ๐Ÿ’๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŽ

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post calls for blood donors across Thailand, highlighting the critical need for Rh-Negative blood, which is very rare within the Thai population and primarily found among expats. Specific locations in Thailand are mentioned for needed blood types, alongside donor eligibility requirements which include age, health status, dietary restrictions before donating, and a special note for donors from the UK, France, and Ireland regarding previous vCJD exposure.
