Nearly 400 servicemen have donated blood for free in the past month, helping in the battle for saving lives, the Military Medical Academy in Sofia reported.

Blood donation is part of the campaign "Be one of us! Donate blood - save a life!” Doctors said that between 6,000 and 7,000 people donate blood to the hospital each year, as half of them are from the Bulgarian Army.

The Military Medical Academy is also grateful to people who recovered from Covid-19 and donated convalescent plasma, helping others fight the infection.
