The response of the citizens of Drama to the action of Voluntary Blood Donation is touching

The Voluntary Blood Donation Action, held in Drama on Monday, June 14th and Tuesday, June 15th, to successfully reduce the reduced blood supply due to the Covid-19 pandemic, was successfully completed with the emotional participation of the citizens.

Once again, the people of Drama, with a strong sense of social responsibility, joined forces to actively support the action and proved that through cooperation and solidarity we can achieve our goal - to support our fellow human beings and protect the most valuable good us ... health! Thanks to everyone's offer, 52 bottles of blood were collected, while it is worth noting that a large number of people came to the blood donation area, but could not donate blood, due to low hemoglobin levels.
