To counter the ongoing blood shortage in the city, the Malad Medical Association (MMA) organised a blood donation camp at Suchak Hospital, Malad East, and at Thunga Hospital, Malad West, a few days ago. A 12-member team from JJ Hospital blood bank helped in conducting the event which resulted in 119 bottles of blood getting collected from healthy donors.
The MMA president, Dr Harshad Joshi, and the general secretary, Dr Shalin Soni, thanked the trustees Dr Anil Suchak, Dr Sanjeev Maniar, Dr Ketan Mehta and immediate past president Dr Manoj Rajani who attended the event.
