Speaking at the ceremony, Associate Professor, Dr. Duong Dinh Chinh - Director of the Department of Health acknowledged the voluntary spirit of doctors, nurses and medical staff in the province. "With their work, the team of doctors and nurses not only devote their intelligence, enthusiasm and effort to treat patients, but also give their precious blood to the community and patients," said Mr. Chinh, adding that the "Pink Drops, White Blouse" festival has become an annual activity of the Nghe An Health sector and hundreds of patients have been saved by these "pink drops".

Meanwhile, Mr. Nguyen Quang Vinh - Director of Nghe An Hematology and Blood Transfusion Center said that currently, in the Center's blood bank, there are only very few blood products left, not enough for emergency and treatment of patients during Tet, so voluntary blood donations like this are very important.

Hopefully, through this “Pink Drops White Blouse” festival, it will spread and receive positive response and participation in voluntary blood donation from agencies, units, organizations, and people… to have enough blood for emergency treatment of patients.

It is expected that the "White Blous Pink Drops" festival will collect from 700 to 800 units of blood. All blood will be transferred to the Nghe An Provincial Hematology and Blood Transfusion Center to serve emergency and treatment of blood diseases. The success of the "White Blous Pink Drops" voluntary blood donation festival not only contributes to overcoming the shortage of emergency blood for patients after the Lunar New Year 2020 but also demonstrates the noble spirit of humanity and humanity, promoting the sense of responsibility of medical professionals.
