You might consider forwarding this to the IP list, if a significant
number of them live in NY.

You are receiving this email because you may be in New York or may know
someone in New York.

According to the news media, there is an urgent need for blood donations
in New York City.  This may be made more complicated because the trauma
centers (St. Vincents and the other downtown hospital) are so busy that
they can not process the potential blood donors that are waiting in line
outside.

People in the upper west side may go to 150 Amsterdam at W 66th Street.
Also, apparently Fire Stations throughout the city are processing blood
donations.

People outside the city are also encouraged to donate blood.  Probably
the reserves in other areas are being sent to NY and Washington, so
there will be shortages in other parts of the country because of this.
I am just guessing about this last point, however.

Also, this is a reminder that the Red Cross is looking for certified CPR
or trained first aid personnel and any such people should call one of
the following three numbers: 212-875-2067, 212-875-2068, 212-875-2069.
