The supply of type O negative blood at the American Red Cross has dropped to critically low levels.
Type O negative donors can make the difference between an adequate blood supply and a summer shortage.
Type O negative blood is always in high demand because it can be transfused to patients with any blood type, especially in emergency situations.
The Red Cross urges those eligible donors with blood type O negative to make and keep appointments to give blood this summer.
We highly encourage all type O negative blood donors who meet the eligibility requirements to double the difference by becoming a double red cell donor. If eligible, you are able to give two donations at once.
