Malnutrition, dehydration impede blood donations in Gaza
  Bangla Press Desk: Blood donations are needed now, right now, across the remaining operational medical facilities in Gaza – Al-Shifa Hospital, Al-Aqsa Hospital, Nasser Hospital. Hani Mahmoud said, "We read and hear doctors’ appeal for more blood because what is available is not sufficient to deal with the influx of injuries that keep pouring into these three major health facilities." On a good day, they receive at least 150 to 200 injured patients who need blood supplies that are not available in this amount to save lives. "We’ve seen at the blood banks many people who were begging doctors to allow them to give blood donations to save their loved ones, but they had to be turned away because they were not fit to donate blood due to the enforced dehydration and starvation", said Hani Mahmoud from Gaza City.
It was deemed by medical staff that they were too frail and weak, which could lead to medical complications if they gave blood or donated blood to other people.
