That day, when I received a call from the Chairman of the SOS blood donation club in Cao Bang province, it was already 10:00 at night. It was a woman with bleeding that the blood store of the provincial general hospital ran out of blood type. “By natural reflex, I got up and drove 45 km from my home to the provincial hospital to donate blood for the sick. I myself did not think about what I would encounter on the way,” – Ms. Hoang Thi Hang recounts his story. Also in another time, when Hang was on a business trip in Thach An district, Cao Bang, on the way back, she received information that there was a patient in need of emergency blood and the blood group coincided with her blood group B.
