Outpouring of blood donations in China’s Zhuhai as residents rally to help car ramming victims

Calls for more people to join the cause have also been circulating online.

“Currently, Zhuhai city’s blood banks are in need of blood. We call on all residents and friends to actively respond, please participate and help to spread the word!” reads a post on the Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu.

The post shared the address of a blood bank, as well as the physical requirements for prospective donors.

People slightly further afield have also tried to chip in. A Macao resident said he drove down to a blood bank in Zhuhai in the early hours of Tuesday after seeing news of the incident. But on arrival, he was told that blood supplies were “enough”. 

“A staff at the (blood) bank told me that there were currently more than 100 people in the queue and that their blood supplies were sufficient,” he shared on Xiaohongshu.

More than 300 healthcare personnel from five hospitals in Zhuhai are providing treatment to the victims, while the National Health Commission has dispatched 11 specialists to aid in the efforts, local media reported.

SHOCK AND HORROR 

The suspect has been identified as a 62-year-old man surnamed Fan. He drove his small SUV through the gate of the sports centre and rammed people exercising on the internal roads, local police said on Tuesday.
