Prakasam District Collector A.S. Dinesh Kumar on Thursday urged health workers to go to the doorstep of blood donors to address the problem of blood shortage.
Inaugurating a state-of-the-art mobile blood collection unit donated by the International Federation of Red Cross, he said blood shortage should be a thing of the past now that the infrastructure bottleneck had been addressed. He exhorted the youth to volunteer to lower their arms to give the gift of life.
