Clinic puts social distancing measures in place to keep donors safe
It's safe to continue giving blood during the coronavirus pandemic as there's no evidence Covid-19 can be transmitted through blood donation.
That's the message from the Isle of Man Government following a plea for donors to continue to attend their appointments as normal, as long as they're fit and healthy.
The Island's blood clinic has been putting social distancing measures in place to ensure those giving blood can do so safely.
Department of Home Affairs chief executive Dan Davies says it's vital the Island has enough blood donations at this time:

Plans approved for 'The Wing'
