A District Level function was observed to mark world blood donor day 2009 at Rotary Bhavan Palampur to honour thirty five leading blood donors and organisations working for this noble cause. Speaking on the occasion, Dr V Mahajan Blood Bank Officer stated that millions of people around the world owe their lives to individuals they will never meet – people who donate their blood to help others. But millions more still can’t get safe blood when they need it. Dr RK Sood District AIDS Project Officer Kangra told that World Blood Donor Day, celebrated on June 14 every year, provides a unique opportunity to thank those very special people that help and to raise awareness about the need for more support. The June date was selected as it is the anniversary of the birth of Karl Landsteiner, the Nobel Prize winner who discovered the ABO blood group system and made the science of blood transfusion possible. President of the Blood bank society told that safe blood saves millions of lives each year. There is no substitute for blood and blood components, so without blood many patients would die. On World Blood Donor Day we celebrate the blood donors, who save millions of lives and bring relief to patients with cancer, malaria, blood diseases and a number of other diseases. The safest blood donors are voluntary, non-remunerated blood donors from low-risk populations. Despite this, family/replacement and paid donors, which are associated with a significantly higher prevalence of transfusion-transmissible infections (TTIs) including HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, Syphilis, still provide more than 50% of the blood collected in developing countries. The emergence of HIV in the 1980s highlighted the importance of ensuring the safety, as well as the adequacy, of national blood supplies. Dr Anil Mahajan CMO Kangra addressing the gathering, told that this year the theme for the World Blood Donor Day is Achieving 100 percent non-remunerated donation of blood and blood components. However, only 57 countries have achieved this goal. Many simply do not know about the need for blood. There is a common blood groups are easily available but it is an irony that the common groups are the ones which are most commonly needed. The lifesaving message is that any healthy person from the age of 18-60 can be donor. He added that people are afraid to donate blood due to fears of weakness, or ignorance about the need of blood, consequently there is always a shortage of blood, especially in developing countries. Of the 81 million units of blood are collected globally every year, only 45% are donated in developing and transitional countries where more than 80% of the world’s population lives. Dr Vinay Mahajan told that the focus of World Blood Donor Day is commitment: * From healthy individuals to become regular, voluntary, unpaid blood donors * From existing voluntary, unpaid donors to continue to donate regularly. The act of blood donation is unique, and blood donors are special people. Blood donors come from all walks of life and all parts of the world, and every year they give more than 81 million blood donations. We may all one day need treatment by blood, but only one percent of the world’s population gives blood. So we need many more donors, if all patients shall be guaranteed proper treatment with safe blood. Honouring the top 35 donors, he said that we salute these everyday heroes, who want to help their fellow human beings and encourage healthy friends and family members to become donors. A blood donation camp was held at Baijnath by Social Organisation Sankalp in which over thirty people donated blood.

रगत अभाव हुन थाल्यो ४ चैत (काठमाण्डौं) कोरोना भाइरस संक्रमणको त्रासका कारण रक्तदान कार्यक्रमका साथै रक्तदाताको संख्या कम भएपछि रगत अभाव हुन थालेको छ । बिरामीलाई आवश्यक रगत उपलब्ध गराउन रक्तसञ्चार केन्द्रहरूलाई अप्ठेरो पर्न थालेको छ । रक्तदान कार्यक्रम निकै न्यून भएपछि मागअनुसार रगत उपलब्ध गराउन गाह्रो भएको हो । उपत्यकामा रगत कम मात्रामा संकलन भइरहेको नेपाल रेडक्रस सोसाइटीको केन्द्रीय रक्तसञ्चार केन्द्रले जनाएको छ । केन्द्रमा दैनिक दुई सयदेखि तीन सय ५० युनिटसम्म रगतको माग आउने गरे पनि हाल दुई सय युनिट मात्रै संकलन भइरहेको छ । पर्याप्त रगत नहुँदा बिरामीको माग पूरा गर्न नसकेको निर्देशक डा. मणिता राजकर्णिकारले बताइन् । ‘रगत संकलन गरिने कार्यक्रममा मानिसको भीड हुन्छ, त्यसैले पनि रक्तदाता कम आउँछन्,’ उनले भनिन् । रगतको माग पूरा गर्न नसकेपछि केन्द्रले बिरामीकै आफन्तको रगत परीक्षण गरी उपलब्ध गराउँदै आएको छ । पूर्व्निर्धा्रित रक्तदानका कार्यक्रम पनि स्थगित भइरहेको राजकर्णिकारले बताइन् । केन्द्रले उपत्यकाका एक सय ५० अस्पतालमा रगत वितरण गर्छ । संकलित रगत ए र ओ पोजिटिभ समूहका मात्रै छन् । यी समूहका रगत पाइए पनि अन्य समूहका रगत पाउन निकै कठिन छ । केन्द्रले अभाव देखाए पनि त्यस्तो अवस्था नआएको नेपाल स्वयंसेवी रक्तदाता समाजका अध्यक्ष प्रेमसागर कर्माचार्यले दाबी गरे । ‘रक्तदाता र रगतको कमी होइन,’ उनले भने, ‘दाता र रगतलाई व्यवस्थापन गर्न नसक्दा समस्या देखियो ।’ व्यवस्थापन गर्न सके रगत अभाव र त्यसको भयावह स्थिति कहिल्यै नआउने उनको भनाइ छ । ‘हामीकहाँ दैनिक १२ जना बिरामी आउँछन्’ उनले भने, ‘२० युनिटसम्म रगत संकलन गरेर दिइरहेका छौं । त्योभन्दा पनि बढी रगत संकलन गर्न सक्छौं ।’ रेडक्रस शाखा भक्तपुरका अनुसार रगत संकलन गर्न कार्यक्रम गरे पनि रक्तदाताकोउपस्थिति न्यून छ । भक्तपुरमा सातामा पाँच सय पाउन्ड रगत संकलन हुने गरे पनि हाल तीन सय पाउन्ड संकलन हुने गरेको शाखा प्रमुख मनोजकुमार थापाले बताए ।
