The year, World Blood Donor Day will once again be celebrated around the world on 14 June under the theme ‘Safe blood saves lives’.
About:
Every year, on 14 June, countries around the world celebrate World Blood Donor Day (WBDD).
The event, established in 2004, serves to raise awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products and to thank blood donors for their life-saving gifts of blood.
It is celebrated to commemorate the birthday anniversary of Karl Landsteiner (1868 – 1943).
He was an Austrian scientist who received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1930 for his discovery of the ABO blood group system.
He has been described as the father of transfusion medicine.
