We’re currently out of some of the caps that go on the blood draw tubes - they’re color coded- different colors for different tests. So not a huge deal as they can work around it. But it’s a nationwide shortage I guess.
I had a bizarre text message from my doctor's surgery here in the south of England today. It says "due to a global shortage of blood bottles we are unable to provide routine blood tests until further notice". Apparently urgent samples requested by a doctor will still be taken but other appointments will be cancelled. What?!!
