MILWAUKEE — Healthy donors are urged to donate blood now to help fight the potential impact of seasonal illnesses and severe flu season on the blood supply, the American Red Cross said Monday.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is predicting a serious spread of flu for this year while reporting an early spike in several states. As seasonal illnesses increase, the Red Cross says the number of healthy donors decreases.
The Red Cross is offering several opportunities to donate this month:
- Donate between Nov. 1-22 and receive a $10 e-gift card
- Donate over the Thanksgiving holiday (Nov. 23-27) and receive a Red Cross knit beanie
- Give between Nov. 28-Dec. 15 and receive a $10 Amazon.com gift card
Schedule an appointment by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org, or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
