It is World Blood Donor Day and it focuses on raising awareness across the globe of the need for safe blood and blood products for transfusion and of the critical contribution voluntary, unpaid blood donors make to national health systems. The day also implores governments and organisations around the world to provide adequate resources and put into place systems and infrastructures to increase the collection of blood from voluntary, non-remunerated blood donors.

Some quick facts:

- Safe blood and blood products and their transfusion are a critical aspect of care and public health.

- Blood shortages are particularly acute in developing countries.

- The need for blood is universal, but access to blood for all those who need it is not.
