2026/07/20

Blood shortages are hitting crisis levels this summer, especially for sickle cell patients who need rare, matched blood — often from donors of the same ethnic background.

Also, beware of shady rental deals—some lock you in or shift blame to third parties. And before you return the car, wipe your personal data from its systems to protect your privacy—and watch out
