"Our goal is to ensure a safe national supply of blood that covers at least seven days," Baitas told a press briefing following the weekly meeting of the Government Council, held under the presidency of the head of government, Aziz Akhannouch.
"We must collect more than 1,000 blood bags per day with the aim of reaching 5,000 bags," he said, adding that the ministry of Health and Social Protection continues, through the National Center for blood transfusion, to conduct several campaigns and initiatives to alleviate the shortage of blood.
