The United States entered the Korean War in 1950.
The most common blood type worldwide is O Positive, making up 38% of the population.
This blood type is especially important in blood transfusions because it can be given to patients with any positive blood type (A+, B+, AB+, and O+), making it versatile in emergency situations.
While the distribution of blood types varies across different regions and ethnic groups, O Positive remains the most prevalent overall. The universal nature of O Positive in blood donations helps meet the demand in hospitals, where having a ready supply is crucial for trauma care, surgeries, and other medical treatments.
