Kota Kinabalu: The blood supply in Sabah is now at a critical level, among others, due to the spread of Covid-19 which caused the blood donation campaigns to be postponed, apart from people’s rising sense of anxiousness about going out and donate.

Sabah Blood Donors Association (Pendarah) President Alix Sunggin said several blood donation campaigns planned by government statutory bodies and non-governmental organisations, especially in public areas, had to be postponed for safety reasons due to the pandemic.
