Blood donation: thank you to our 95 donors!

Thank you for your exemplary mobilization!

Our City hosted a new blood drive, in partnership with the French Blood Establishment (EFS), on August 12, at the Salle des Fêtes. The Gargenvillois demonstrated exemplary mobilization since the operation was sold out! A huge thank you to our 95 donors for their great generosity which will save many lives.

1 donation = 3 lives saved

Each year, thanks to blood donation, 1 million patients are treated: a woman who lost a lot of blood during childbirth, a man suffering from cancer undergoing chemotherapy treatment, or people suffering from chronic diseases such as sickle cell anemia. .. 1 hour is the time it takes to donate blood and it is also the time it takes to save 3 lives (Source : EFS).

No health pass to donate!

All collections are organized in accordance with barrier gestures, with the wearing of a compulsory mask. You do not need to be tested to donate blood, nor to be vaccinated. It is also possible to donate blood without delay, either before or after an injection of the Covid-19 vaccine. People who have exhibited symptoms of Covid must wait 14 days after symptoms disappear to be able to donate blood, or 14 days after testing positive.
