With many blood drives cancelled in the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, blood banks have reported unprecedented shortages, and donors are urgently needed. For a limited time, blood donation centers run by the American Red Cross and Vitalant will test all donors for COVID-19 antibodies (Please note that this is NOT a COVID-19 test. Antibody tests provide insight as to whether a person has been previously exposed to COVID-19.).
Individuals interested in learning more can sign up for an upcoming free blood donor webinar series from Versiti Blood Centers, which will include a live Q&A section. Click here for more information.
