Terengganu to collect 20,000 bags of blood this year

KUALA TERENGGANU: The Terengganu Health Department has targeted to collect 20,000 bags of blood this year through the Sultanah Nur Zahirah Hospital (HSNZ) Blood Bank Unit.

Its director Datuk Dr Kasemani Embong said the department was confident that it could reach the target as the country has entered into the transition to endemicity, and this will allow more blood donation programmes to be held.
