I don't know with other countries but our red cross here does not give or sell blood to patients if they cannot provide a replacement. This is really a crazy policy . What if one has never donated blood to the red cross? He can never asked for blood from them. And then, a policy was promulgated shutting down all blood banks in the city which could have provided an alternative source for blood.
My patient's platelet hovered between 6 to 9 yesterday. This morning, it has gone to 32. Alleluliah. We are not out of the woods yet. We will wait for the next platelet determination in 6 hrs.
