Blood Bank in Need of Donations As Hospitals Resume Elective Procedures

As local hospitals return to more normal operations and resume elective procedures, the Community Blood Center of Ozarks is in critical need of blood donations. Media Relations Representative Chris Pilgrim says the blood bank usually likes to have a three-day reserve supply of blood, but currently it has less than a one-day supply since the majority of CBCO's mobile blood drivers have been cancelled.
