It is advisable to carry around a card with blood type, in case of an emergency and you need blood. It will save time having the labs take your blood and test it while you might be dying.

The benefit of blood in bags is that when a serious accident occurs and we need to give blood to the patient, after verifying what blood group he/she belongs to we can donate them blood.
