I must admit to being disappointed with this article.  The headline needlessly detracted from an outstanding local achievement.

The FDA conducted a thorough audit of all aspects of the Blood Bank of Alaska's activities - and gave the organization a completely clean bill of health:  no observations, no comments of concern, nothing.

The FDA looked at everything.  The FDA found nothing.  You can't ask for better than that.  

This is an important outcome for Alaska as the Blood Bank of Alaska is our blood bank. If you need, or if someone you know needs, to receive blood or blood products here in Alaska for whatever reason, that blood will almost certainly come from an Alaskan donor via the Blood Bank of Alaska.

A completely clean FDA Audit is almost unheard of in blood banking.  It is good news for Alaska's hospitals and clinics, it is good news for Alaskan patients, and it reflects really really well on everyone working at the Blood Bank.
