We are coordinating another Lions Community Blood Drive, and this one will be our first-ever to be held on a Saturday! The date is March 27, 2021, and the hours will be 11 AM to 3 PM. The location will be the same as our November blood drive, in the large conference room (the Sacramento Room) at Vitalant Headquarters, located at the former Mather Air Force Base.
A question came up about timing from a potential blood donor who is scheduled to receive the 2nd vaccination three days before the blood drive.
I have communicated with staff at Vitalant. I have been informed that there is NO waiting period between receiving either the Moderna or the Pfizer vaccines and donating blood. When you are asked about recent vaccinations during the registration process at the blood drive, simply tell the staff person which vaccine you received so that it can be added to your Vitalant record.
Lions Blood Drive date: Saturday, March 27, 2021, 11:00 AM-3:00 PM

Please bring a Photo I.D. /
Please eat well and drink plenty of water prior to donating.
