Want to save a life? It’s as easy as donating blood. Hawai‘i usually has about a two week supply of blood on hand at any time and during COVID the strain on our blood banks has made it even as short as 2 days. Dr. Kim-Anh Nguyen is on the show, sharing how donating blood, or platelets, or plasma, can help to save someone’s life. Maybe even your own one day. Learn more about how to know your blood type, how to donate, and more.

Dr. Kathy Kozak hosts The Body Show on Mondays at 6:30 p.m. on HPR-1.
