"Nguyen Tri Hieu, 48, from HCM City has donated blood 71 times. However, he has set a goal of donating blood up to 100 times or until his health no longer allows him to.

“My mother died due to lack of blood for a transfusion when I was 20 years old. My family got together in an effort to donate blood to help her. We even bought blood from other donors, but it was not enough,” he recalled.

“I wasn't just my mother at that time, many patients were in desperate need of blood transfusions but the resources simply weren't there and they had to leave this world before their time.” said Hieu.

A few years after his mother passed away, Hieu decided to register to donate blood. Since the first time in 1997, Hieu has donated blood for 71 times, offering up the life-giving resource once every three months.

“There have been many times when I've donated blood to people in need of urgent transfusions. Once, when I was working, my friend at the blood bank called me to help a child at the Heart Institute. My boss immediately told me to go to the hospital.”

“I remembered all the times I've donated blood like that because if did not hurry, the patient’s life would be at risk," he said.

Hieu is also a registered organ donor. "I feel like I can give something, I don't need to keep it," he said. "I feel like I can give away anything, I should not keep it, how can I do it when someone might need it.”

Hieu was one of 100 donors who were honoured at a ceremony on Thursday for their contributions to the country’s voluntary blood donation movement in 2019."

5: He has never registered to be an organ donor.

Dr. Jonas Salk is credited with developing the first vaccine to fight against dreaded polio. Born in New York in 1914, Salk received his medical degree from New York University College of Medicine in 1939 and later attended the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan.

Salk was very interested in preventive medicine. He worked for the army on producing a vaccine against influenza for five years from 1942 to 1947. In 1949, a group at Harvard University led by John Enders developed a method to grow the poliovirus in quantity so that it could be studied further. This discovery was important as it allowed Salk and his fellow workers to study the disease in greater detail.

By 1952, Salk’s group had successfully tested a polio vaccine using an inactive poliovirus. In 1954, there were field tests done on a large scale. Initially, there were many different vaccines being used among the public, and there were some deaths associated with the vaccinations. However, Salk’s vaccine proved to be the best and was used without further problems. What was once a dreaded killer had been tamed by the work of Dr. Jonas Salk and co-workers.

From 1942 to 1947, Salk __________
