Improving Access to Safe Blood -
The 3rd International Blood Safety Forum
Friday March 24, 2017
 
Join the conversation at the third International Blood Safety Forum on  March 24, 2017 and collaborate with academic, industry and government leaders working to improve access to safe blood in the developing world. The Forum, co-sponsored by Global Healing and America's Blood Centers, will be held one day before the start of ABC's Annual Meeting at the Ritz Carlton Hotel, Pentagon City, in Arlington VA.  Click below to add the event to your c alendar:
Essential tools for screening of blood for HIV, HBV, and HCV are now available in most countries thanks to  many years of work. The challenge for the next decade is to increase the supply of blood products at an  affordable price, so that reductions in maternal mortality, childhood anemia and trauma deaths can be realized.  The Forum will examine
  • Progress that has been made under PEPFAR
  • Gaps that remain in access to safe blood
  • The business case for increasing the supply of safe blood 
  • Potential solutions to the current shortages of affordable blood products
    in the developing world. 
I hope you will join us in moving the conversation forward - we're looking forward to connecting with you.
Sincerely,










John Donnelly, Ph.D.
