If all blood donors gave three times a year, blood shortages would be a rare event. Medic Regional Blood Center continues to need donations, and there is an opportunity locally to give next week.
Medic will be set up from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Dec. 4 at the Walmart in Maryville. Donors must be at least 17 and weigh more than 110 pounds.
Each donor will receive a year's membership toward Medic's Family Blood Coverage Program.
