Supplementary notes

"Centers with a blood supply of 3 or more days have enough blood to meet normal operating demands. Those with only a 2-day supply are running low and need blood donations. Centers with a day or less of blood are critically low on blood and need donations as soon as possible. "N/A" indicates centers that haven't yet reported a blood supply level."

Data is for 59 community blood centers across the United States.
