Until about 14 years ago, blood donation was only possible by direct transfusion. Serum is the liquid part of the blood from which the red cells have been removed. Since the inception of the Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service there has been a growing army of donors, good men and women, who have not hesitated to give some of their life-giving blood.
But even this constant flow of the precious liquid is not sufficient to meet the pressing needs of today. The Red Cross is constantly appealing for donors and recently members of the Melbourne Junior Chamber of Commerce have given significant support to the task of finding new supplies. The amount of blood taken from a donor has no harmful effect on a normal adult - and those who do not meet the minimum standards are not accepted as donors.
Those who have not given blood may have heard that some donors feel faint afterwards, but research has shown that this is largely psychological in origin, similar to the reaction of a healthy young military recruit about to receive his first vaccination. So if you are between the ages of 18 and 55 (the same for men and women) and weigh more than 81 tons, and if you are willing to give your blood, you might save more lives. TODAY, OUR BLOOD CAN SAVE THE LIFE OF ANOTHER; TOMORROW, SOMEONE ELSE'S BLOOD MAY PRESERVE OUR OWN LIVES.
