The association “zero drops of blood on the road” never misses an opportunity to meet and accomplish this saving and patriotic gesture.
Moumini Koudougou, president of the “Zero Drops of Blood on the Road” Association, noted that more than 150 bags are expected at the end of the collection. We are very happy with the mobilization. There are more than 140 people who have registered to donate blood. So today we say that we will have more than 150 bags of blood. Which is a reason for satisfaction. ” he said.
Members of the Zero Drops of Blood association on the road donating bloodHe stressed that the supply of the National Blood Transfusion Center (CNTS) is below the demand for blood. “ACurrently, it is said that the CNTS needs between 300 and 400 bags of blood per day to meet demand. While per day, the Burkinabe who go to give blood are estimated at 50.
It is impossible to meet the demand if we do not mobilize. The invitation is to bring everyone to give their precious liquid to be able to save pregnant women, war wounded, malaria sufferers, accident victims …,” he explained.
Moumini Koudougou, president of the Zero Drops of Blood on the Road AssociationDr. Josyca Laure Alice Konaté, from the National Blood Transfusion Center, recalled that the winter season sees a high demand for blood while stocks are almost empty. According to her, today’s momentum will help replenish stocks and have blood for the sick and injured. She therefore took the opportunity to invite the entire population to donate blood without ulterior motives, because it is an undeniably life-saving gesture.

Doctor Josyca Laure Alice Konaté from the National Blood Transfusion Center« In Burkina Faso, we have less than 1% of the population who give blood. Whereas if we have at least one person in a hundred who gives blood in Burkina Faso, this would allow us to meet the demands of all hospitals. So, let’s not wait until we have a sick relative or acquaintance. Let’s not wait until we are sick ourselves before going to the blood transfusion centers. At certain times, it can be late, so let’s not hesitate. “, urged Dr. Josyca Laure Alice Konaté.
As a reminder, the zero drop of blood on the road association works for road safety, civic-mindedness and responsible citizenship.
