Masks Required
As part of recent state-mandated regulations, we require all donors to wear personal masks or face coverings. We have also instituted additional precautions at our donor centers and mobile blood drives consistent with CDC and AABB recommendations. 

Additional Information
If you have had COVID-19 and would like to donate blood, you are able to as long as you’ve been symptom-free for 14 days.

The antibody test will be performed on all successful donations at every Versiti blood center and blood drive. This test will be done automatically on tubes that are collected as part of the donation. The test will inform donors if they have antibodies reflective of a prior COVID-19 infection and is not to inform donors if they currently have COVID-19. 

If you have received the COVID-19 vaccine, there is a two-day waiting period to donate blood or platelets.
