Question: What flow of goods and services were managed and distributed by General Blood?

<P0-S0>  Interconnected or interlinked networks, channels and node businesses combine in the provision of products and services required by end customers in a supply chain. <P0-S1> In commerce, supply chain management (SCM), the management of the flow of goods and services, involves the movement and storage of raw materials, of work-in-process inventory, and of finished goods from point of origin to point of consumption. <P0-S2>  Supply-chain management has been defined as the "design, planning, execution, control, and monitoring of supply chain activities with the objective of creating net value, building a competitive infrastructure, leveraging worldwide logistics, synchronizing supply with demand and measuring performance globally." <SEP> <P1-S0>  General Blood's process is designed to balance excesses and shortages of blood by improving supply chain efficiencies and logistical models within the blood distribution industry. <P1-S1> General Blood is a FDA registered and AABB accredited distributor of human blood, platelets, and plasma for hospitals, non-transfusion facilities, and group-purchasing organizations. <P1-S2>  The company’s goal is to redistribute blood supplies, increase competition in the distribution market, and lower the cost of health care in the United States. <P1-S3>  General Blood was established by creating an online marketplace where medical centers are able to post excess quantities of blood for sale and place orders to replenish blood supplies. <SEP> <P2-S0> Social inequality occurs when resources in a given society are distributed unevenly, typically through norms of allocation, that engender specific patterns along lines of socially defined categories of persons. <P2-S1>  It is the differentiation preference of access of social goods in the society brought about by power, religion, kinship, prestige, race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, and class. <P2-S2>  The social rights include labor market, the source of income, health care, and freedom of speech, education, political representation, and participation. <P2-S3>  Social inequality linked to Economic inequality, usually described on the basis of the unequal distribution of income or wealth, is a frequently studied type of social inequality. <P2-S4>  Though the disciplines of economics and sociology generally use different theoretical approaches to examine and explain economic inequality, both fields are actively involved in researching this inequality. <P2-S5>  However, social and natural resources other than purely economic resources are also unevenly distributed in most societies and may contribute to social status. <P2-S6>  Norms of allocation can also affect the distribution of rights and privileges, social power, access to public goods such as education or the judicial system, adequate housing, transportation, credit and financial services such as banking and other social goods and services. <SEP> <P3-S0> Bone marrow failure occurs in individuals who produce an insufficient amount of red blood cells, white blood cells or platelets. <P3-S1>  Red blood cells transport oxygen to be distributed throughout the body’s tissue. <P3-S2>  White blood cells fight off infections that enter the body. <P3-S3>  Bone marrow also contains platelets, which trigger clotting, and thus help stop the blood flow when a wound occurs.
