Mike Stredder, the director of blood donation for NHS Blood and Transplant, has released a statement after Brexit led to some blood donor sessions being cancelled.
He said: "We have taken the decision to cancel donation sessions in Dover and Folkestone for a two week period before and for six weeks after Britain's exit from the EU.
"This is because in the event of issues at Calais and other freight ports, Operation Stack may be put in place by Highways England and the Kent Police.
"This could lead to significant traffic in Kent and may prevent donation teams from reaching venues in the area or a donation leaving."
He said only six blood donation sessions out of 2,700 held around the country would be affected - and replacement sessions would be held to compensate.
"There will be no effect on blood stocks or on our ability to supply hospitals," he added.
The world has gone mad either that or the NHS thinks it will have enough blood in stock by then.
