Blood donation and COVID-19: 3 things to know
BY Cynthia DeMarco
If you’re confused about how your新冠肺炎身份可能会影响您的资格donate blood or platelets, 你不是一个人。
例如,如果您最近有一个新冠肺炎vaccineor a助推器射击?如果您最近有什么样的recovered from COVID-19?
For answers, we went to费尔南多·马丁内斯(Fernando Martinez),医学博士a pathologist who serves as medical director ofMD Anderson’s输血服务和捐助者运营。这就是他不得不说的。
如果您最近获得了Covid-19疫苗或助推器射击,您可以捐献血液吗?
这取决于两件事:
- 您收到了哪种类型的Covid-19疫苗或助推器,以及
- how you’re feeling at the time of the donation.
如果您收到了由辉瑞(Pfizer),现代或詹森(Janssen)/约翰逊(Johnson)和约翰逊(Johnson)批准的FDA批准的Covid-19-19,则无需等待捐赠血液或血小板,只要您没有副作用。接种疫苗后,有些人会经历类似19的症状,例如发烧,皮疹或身体酸痛。因此,如果您是这些人之一,则需要等待。
That’s because feeling well and healthy is actually a prerequisite to donating blood at any time. In fact, it’s one of the very我们的筛选人员问的第一件事潜在的献血者。原因是,如果您感觉不舒服,您可能正在战斗any number of infections你自己。而且您不想无意中将其中一名传递给已经已经存在的癌症患者immunocompromised。
If you received any other type of COVID-19 vaccine or booster shot — meaning it hasn’t been granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) — then you’ll need to wait at least two full weeks before donating blood, and possibly more in some cases.
Check with MDAnderson Blood Bank at 713-792-7777 for details on your particular situation.
如果我实际上有covid-19,我需要等待多长时间才能献血?
Again, that depends.
如果您对Covid-19的阳性测试,但仍然没有症状,则有资格在测试阳性结果后14天捐赠血液。
If you tested positive for COVID-19 and have shown symptoms of infection, then you must wait to donate blood until you’ve been symptom-free for at least 14 days.
And, if you were hospitalized for COVID-19, that’s a totally different story. In that case, you may have receiveda COVID-19 treatmentthat will land you on the deferral list. For instance, if you got a blood transfusion or康复等离子体, you will automatically be placed on the deferral list for a year.
But every patient is different, so the best way to find out if you’re eligible to donate is to call the MD Anderson Blood Bank at 713-792-7777.
Is it safe for donors to give blood right now, during this latest surge?
Absolutely. AtMD AndersonBlood Bank, we have extensive infection control protocols in place, which in some cases exceed those recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
捐助者和工作人员都必须穿手术面具during the donation process, and社交隔离is still maintained. Collection stations are separated by at least six feet. We also try to stagger our donors’ appointments, so the number of people in any given collection area at one time is minimal.
