On the occasion of the new year, the president of the Amicale des donors de sang, Roger Lemoine, announces that the French Blood Establishment (EFS) is launching season IV of its blood donor operation. A great opportunity to make blood donation your first resolution for 2021! By symbolizing the lack of blood by the disappearance of the letters of the blood groups, the objective of this operation is to insist on the essential mobilization of blood donors to meet the needs of patients.
After the end of the year celebrations, which each year lead to a drop in reserves, this is an opportunity to remember that 1,000 blood donations are needed every day in Occitania. The principle is extremely simple: you too can embark on the adventure by hiding the letters A, B, O of your social network profiles or your professional email signature, by relaying your involvement on social networks.
Next collection at the Claude-Nougaro hall with exceptionally two collection days on Tuesday 5 January from 2:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., and Wednesday 6 January 10 am to 3:30 pm It is recommended not to come on an empty stomach and to drink well before and after donation.
