The Blood Connection is teaming up with The Drive in hosting a blood donation event due to the great need for blood donations, especially the convalescent plasma.
The Convalescent plasma from COVID-19 recoveries has been known to contain antibodies that could help in the recovery of COVID-19 patients.
The blood drive will be held at Flour Field on Saturday, August 8, from 10:00 a.m to 3:00 p.m. Those who complete a blood donation will receive free COVID-19 antibody testing and a $10 VISA card.
Fluor Field is located at 945 South Main Street, Greenville, SC 29601.
Special precautions will be taken during this drive to limit exposure and encourage social distancing:
- Donor flow will be set up to limit interaction between donors.
- All TBC staff will be wearing masks. Face coverings are required for donors.
- Donor chairs will be spaced as far apart as possible.
- Donors are strongly encouraged to make an appointment to control social distancing.
