The Community Blood Center of the Ozarks continues to experience a shortage of all type O blood products. Blood center spokesman, Chris Pilgrim, says donations are needed immediately to ensure that adequate reserve levels are maintained.

As an incentive to give, during October, donors will receive a CBCO 16 ounce campfire mug.

The CBCO is the area's exclusive provider of blood products to over forty area hospitals.
