Tulsa Red Cross Issues Urgent Call For Blood Donations

The Red Cross says a emergency shortage has prompted the organization to issue an urgent call for blood donations.

The Red Cross says all blood types, especially Type O, are needed.

With Independence Day, last week, the Red Cross says it is seeing a marked decrease in blood donations.  The Red Cross says Type O is the most in-demand blood type and often the first be depleted from hospital shelves during a shortage.

Eligible eastern Oklahoma donors are urged to give blood during one the following blood drives:
