Mohali, April 16
In view of the Covid-19 outbreak, the PGI has started communicating with volunteer blood donors and social organisations.
Officials of the PGI have motivated volunteers in Mohali to come forward for the cause. A special sanitised vehicle of the PGI will offer the pick-and-drop facility.
Mohali councillor Satvir Singh Dhanoa said he had received a call from a blood bank official who had asked him to find volunteers. Dhanoa said the gesture would benefit the hospital and patients.
He said the donation process was going to start in a few days.
PGI blood bank head RR Sharma and assistant professor Suchet Sachdev said there was no shortage of blood at the bank presently. However, no camp was organised for past several days amid lockdown.
“We have started preparing a list of volunteers who are young. We need around 25 donors each day as per the requirement of the PGI,” said Dhanoa.
