thumb_CarterBloodCareEAST TEXAS — Carter BloodCare is experiencing a shortage on all RH negative blood types in its community blood supply, and less-than-preferred levels on most other blood types, according to a news release. The shortage includes O- (the universal blood type), A-, B- and AB-. Carter says it has hospital back orders for many of these types and is unable to import from other community blood centers to supply local patient needs, due to impact on blood collections and travel from the weather situation across much of the U.S. Donations are being strongly urged. The news release says anyone wishing to donate should make an appointment at a donor center or blood drive as soon as possible: http://bit.ly/1eFcEKr
