Dr Tejaswi donated blood to save critically ill AIDS patient life

 

55 yrs old Mr Radheshyam Chowdhary (Name Changed) from Vaishali, who is

suffering from  AIDS and is put under WHO stage IV category was in acute need of

blood for his survival.

None of his family members were ready to donate blood for him except his wife

Krishna Chowdhary ( Name Changed), 46 yrs old, but she couldn't donate as she

was underweight. Radheshyam's treating physician Dr Diwakar Tejaswi

understanding the situation himself donated blood to save his patients life

today. After the recovery of Radheshyam's condition

Dr Tejaswi stated that HIV/AIDS in Bihar is increasing rapidly and it is

unfortunate that still there is widespread misconception regarding the disease

in Bihar. He urged all the healthy people of Bihar aged between 18-60 years,

weighing more than 45 kg and having hemoglobin more than 12.5 gram/dl  to donate

blood atleast twice yearly so that there will be no scarcity of blood in blood

banks.
