The Coastal Bend Blood Center highly recommends donors to schedule an appointment. Interested donors can click this link (http://bit.ly/37ZbPk6) or call the Blood Center at 361-855-4943 to schedule a lifesaving appointment.
They are currently offering a complimentary COVID-19 Antibody Test for every donor. The board at the Blood Center has just decided to extend this complimentary testing period until March 31st, as of right now! This is a great resource for employees and community as this test will let the donor know if they have come in contact with anyone that has had COVID-19 or they had COVID-19. This test is not to let donors know if they are currently positive or negative for the corona virus. If someone believes they have been exposed, have symptoms or would like to get tested, they should not donate blood and find the nearest COVID-19 testing facility.
Donors will also receive a T-Shirt & a food coupon.
