NORTH TEXAS (CBSDFW.COM) – Historically, blood donations to the American Red Cross decline as it gets closer to the holidays, but this year the organization is facing an extreme shortage that has them putting out an “emergency” call.
Red Cross officials say there were more than 20,000 fewer blood donations during September and October, that coupled with hurricanes Michael and Florence and fewer blood drives being held led to the shortage.
