DRK invites you to donate blood

The German Red Cross is calling for blood donations in Westbevern on Friday (February 3rd) from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Catholic parish home, Grevener Straße 34. In Telgte, the next blood donation campaigns will take place on Monday (February 6) and Tuesday (February 7) from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the DRK center, Steintor 1.

The new year started with a tense situation for the DRK blood donation service. As a result of a high level of sickness among the population, the number of blood donations had already fallen before Christmas, according to the DRK. This trend continued over the turn of the year. It is all the more important that healthy people donate blood now. Every blood donor who brings a new donor with them will receive a fancy umbrella.

The DRK asks everyone who wants to donate blood to reserve an appointment. It is also possible to donate blood after a corona vaccination. After surviving a severe corona infection (e.g. with fever), you can donate blood again no later than four weeks after recovery. After a mild corona disease (runny nose or cold symptoms), you can donate blood again one week after the symptoms have subsided.
