Recognizing that six blood products will most likely *form the drivers* for the number of donations of blood, plasma and cellular blood components needed, these should be given priority in policy and strategy development for achieving self-sufficiency based on VNRBD. These six driver products are:
1) whole blood and red blood cells either recovered from whole blood or by apheresis (WB/RBC); 2) platelets either recovered from whole blood or by apheresis (PLT); 3) plasma for transfusion either recovered from whole blood or sourced by apheresis and prepared by any production method (FFP); 4) plasma-derived clotting factor VIII prepared by any production method (pd-FVIII); 5) polyvalent human (H) immune globulin (IgIV or IgSC); and 6) human albumin solutions for transfusion (Alb).

Thank you for your help!
