Last June – when much was still unknown about the COVID-19 virus – the Red Cross began testing all blood product donations for COVID-19 antibodies. With a majority of Americans now having received a COVID-19 vaccine and the discontinuation of convalescent plasma, the Red Cross has stopped testing for COVID-19 antibodies as of June 25, 2021. If you received a COVID-19 antibody test during a previous donation, you will continue to have access to past test results online or through the Blood Donor App
The Red Cross is continuing research efforts related to COVID-19 in communities across the country. Some donors may continue to receive outreach from the Red Cross as part of this vital initiative.
If you donated blood, platelets or plasma between June 15, 2020 and June 25, 2021 the results of your previous antibody test(s) are available by logging in to your Blood Donor account on the Blood Donor App or online. You can also find the results of your mini-physical, including temperature, blood pressure, pulse, and hemoglobin levels.
Log in to your donor account on RedCrossBlood.org or the Blood Donor App to view past test results.
