Quick Search Latin Americans and Caribbeans know little about blood donation, study shows Washington, DC, August 8, 2002 (PAHO) Many people in Latin America and the Caribbean know little about blood donation and have difficulty accessing blood services, according to a study in 15 countries sponsored by the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO). The study demonstrated that Latin American and Caribbean citizens have little information on how donated blood is obtained, processed and utilized. Furthermore, it is difficult for them to gain access to these services and blood bank hours pose obstacles. The findings also confirmed that many myths about blood donation are prevalent, including the mistaken idea that donating blood will cause people to gain weight, lose weight, or induce disease.

With the support of experts and in consultation with health authorities of each country, personnel were trained to carry out the surveys. The survey's main result was that there is a need to educate people to eliminate false beliefs and to give precise information on blood and blood donation.

Some sales directors get starry-eyed, thinking that consumer and business purchasing power have driven this impressive rollout. Others recognize the lower spending power of Latin Americans, but still assume that their propensity to consume ICT products stands at developed country levels. As this article points out, however, annual per capita spending on ICT products and services in the region is less than 6% of the level in the United States. Nonetheless, telecommunications networks will continue to be rolled out, and millions of Latin Americans will become regular telephone and Internet users for the first time.
