The Antigua and Barbuda Red Cross Society has launched an emergency mobilization campaign for blood donations to support Edith Okadele Tomlinson, who requires immediate transfusion therapy. In an official public advisory, the humanitarian organization emphasized that all blood types are critically needed without restriction.
Potential donors meeting eligibility criteria are urgently requested to visit the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre’s Blood Bank facility during operational hours from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Medical authorities stress that timely contributions from the community could prove decisive for the patient’s treatment outcome.
The Red Cross underscored the time-sensitive nature of this medical requirement, appealing to civic-minded individuals to present themselves at the earliest opportunity. For additional details regarding donation procedures and eligibility parameters, concerned citizens may directly contact either the SLBMC Blood Bank or the Antigua and Barbuda Red Cross headquarters for comprehensive guidance.
