Estância Velha receives on Saturday, the 16th, the mobile unit of the Blood Center of Porto Alegre. The goal is to collect blood to meet the high demand for blood consumption due to the tragedy that occurred with the population of Vale do Taquari. Estância Velha was awarded the arrival of the walking blood collection unit, due to the success of the action promoted by the Department of Health in August.
The bus will be at the PAC – Cultural Activities Pavilion from 8 am. The collection will be made in order of arrival with the distribution of passwords. The maximum capacity of the Blood Center for blood collection is 75 donors. No prior booking will be made for the procedure.
“We continue to demonstrate the solidarity vocation of the people of Estancio in this action to help the population affected by the flood in Vale do Taquari”, explains Mayor Diego Francisco.
The team from the Transfusion Agency at Getúlio Vargas Municipal Hospital, responsible for the action, expects the population to attend and collaborate as they did in the action carried out in August, which was considered above expectations.
