Please consider making a blood donation at this or an upcoming Tanner Blood Drive. Blood is vital to saving lives.

The Red Cross is now testing all regular blood donations for COVID-19 antibodies. If your antibody test result is positive, the plasma from your donation may be processed into a convalescent plasma, helping others battling the virus.

To sign up for a regular blood donation time slot, simply go to tanner.org/plasma. You’ll be prompted to sign in or create an account with the American Red Cross. Walk-ins are also welcome, but reserving a time slot prior to the drive is recommended.

All blood donors must have a temperature check prior to entering, wear a face mask and follow social distancing guidelines.
