\"Buzz4HealthBuzz4Health, a unique platform for doctors and medical students, is encouraging people to gift a life by donating blood. Every year our nation requires about 5 Crore units of blood, out of which only a meager 2.5 Crore units of blood are available while more than 38,000 blood donations are needed every day.<\/p>\n

Realizing\u00c2\u00a0the need of more blood donors, the doctors registered at Buzz4Health.com,\u00c2\u00a0Dr Sidharth Sonthalia and\u00c2\u00a0Dr Jitin Narula<\/em><\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0have expressed their thoughts on blood donors in India.<\/p>\n

According to\u00c2\u00a0Dr Sidharth Sonthalia,\u00c2\u00a0MD, DNB, MNAMS, FISD,\u00c2\u00a0Senior Consultant\u00c2\u00a0Dermatologist; Medical Director, SKINNOCENCE: The Skin Clinic,\u00c2\u00a0Gurugram. Founder Director of DERMASOURCEINDIA,<\/em><\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0“A Family has traditionally been considered to be a group of people associated with each other through a common \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcblood line\u00e2\u20ac\u2122. And if blood-connectivity is indeed the measure of \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcfamily\u00e2\u20ac\u2122, then let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s take it metaphorically to attain \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Vasudhev Kutumbakam\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, the quintessential concept of universal human fraternization so \"Buzz4Healthdeeply engrained in the Indian clairvoyance. Lets expand our family by donating blood.\u00c2\u00a0Delhi NCR alone faces a shortage of 100,000 units per year. Blood cannot be manufactured \u00e2\u20ac\u201c it can only come from generous donors.\u00c2\u00a0Blood donation is said to be beneficial to the donor’s health. It can prevent accumulation of toxics quantities to patients prone to iron overload, may lower the risk of heart disease in men, effectively reduce blood pressure, blood glucose and heart rate in patients with metabolic syndrome.\u00c2\u00a0DONATE BLOOD.”<\/p>\n

Further he added “You may never know who gets your donation, but it will indeed save someone\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s life, and offer hope and peace to so many others; perhaps a mother waiting outside an operation theatre praying for her son\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s recovery, a husband, hoping against hope for the safety of his wife and a child who is yet to explore this beautiful world! Not everyone can be a doctor; but that does not mean you cannot contribute as a healer and save lives! You can DONATE BLOOD every three months.\u00c2\u00a0Let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s contribute to saving lives by donating blood”.<\/p>\n

Dr Jitin Narula\u00c2\u00a0who is\u00c2\u00a0Associate Consultant,\u00c2\u00a0Department of\u00c2\u00a0Cardiac Anesthesiology,\u00c2\u00a0Max Super Speciality Hospital<\/em><\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0said”If you feel there is something you want to do for this country and for mankind, donate blood! It’s as noble as organ donation as it brings back life to those in dire need of it. As organ donation usually occurs posthumously, after donating blood you can be happy and proudly boast that your small gesture has saved many lives! Every blood donor is a hero, so step forward and give someone the gift of life on this Blood Donation Day.”<\/p>\n

One donation can help save the lives of up to three people. Buzz4Health wants people to come up and join the cause to save a life by donating blood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
