Hospitals in San Bernardino County are experiencing blood shortages due to an increase in scheduled surgeries. LifeStream says it has less than a one-day supply of most blood types.

Donors must be at least 15 years of age, weigh at least 115 pounds, present current photo ID, and be in good health.
