Safeguarding Lives with Voluntary Blood Donations and Advanced Testing

Did you know that every two seconds, someone in India needs blood?

Voluntary blood donation is the lifeline of healthcare systems around the world, and in India, it holds a particularly crucial role. With a population of over 1.4 billion, the demand for safe and adequate blood supply is ever-increasing.

However, the safety of the blood supply is equally important. Ensuring that blood is free from viruses is crucial in preventing transfusion-transmissible infections (TTIs) such as HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C. This is where advanced screening technologies like Nucleic Acid Testing (NAT) play a vital role.

Hear from Dr Rajesh Sawant, Consultant, Transfusion Medicine at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Hospital, as he emphasises the critical importance of voluntary blood donation and blood testing and discusses how NAT (Nucleic Acid Test) plays a key role in ensuring blood safety.

Your blood can save lives, and safe blood can greatly enhance someone's quality of life. This #WorldBloodDonorDay, donate blood and be a NATAdvocate.
