[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Muan County, Jeonnam (Governor Kim San) announced on the 4th that it promoted the Life, Love, and Sharing Blood Donation Campaign on the 3rd to resolve the blood supply shortage caused by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

This blood donation campaign was conducted to secure a stable blood supply as individual and group blood donations decreased due to the extended social distancing period, which was expected to cause difficulties in blood supply for medical institutions.

On that day, about 40 public officials and local residents participated in blood donation on the Korean Red Cross bus prepared at the county health center and Seungdal Culture and Arts Center plaza. The event was held in compliance with quarantine rules, including checking the temperature and respiratory symptoms of all visitors to prevent COVID-19 infection.

A participant, Mr. A, said, "I heard that there is difficulty in blood supply due to COVID-19, so I decided to participate in this blood donation," adding, "I hope this blood donation helps save the precious lives of neighbors around me."

Going forward, Muan County plans to take the lead in practicing community love and sharing life by continuing the blood donation campaign together with the Korean Red Cross.
