SOME players in Jamaica’s public health sector are expressing concern that problems identified in an audit of the National Blood Transfusion Service (Blood Bank) three years ago have not been addressed and could now be worse.

According to Jamaica Observer sources, the inefficiencies at the Blood Bank are threatening the safety of the public.

The audit report has not been made public by the Ministry of Health and Wellness but the Observer has received access to the document which probed the operations over the period March 26, 2022 to March 25, 2023.
