SHARJAH — The UAE pledged to translate into Arabic the professional ethics of blood transfusion services issued by the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT) in Europe, Health Minister Humaid Mohammed Obaid Al Qutami has announced.
''The humanitarian initiative will serve medical science in the Arab World,'' Al Qutami said.
The UAE's offer came in a message sent by Al Qutami to ISBT's recent conference in Netherlands.
It was conveyed by Dr. Amin bin Hussein Al Amiri, Director of Blood Transfusion and Research Department, Health Ministry, and Regional Manager of the 26-member East Mediterranean Office for Blood Transfusion Services.
