As per the order issued by NBTC Director Dr. Sunil Gupta, a person can donate blood for the next 28 days after taking the last dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
As all the adults are becoming eligible for vaccination, many doctors and blood banks speculate that this might create a significant crisis due to a shortage of blood and have appealed to the masses to donate blood/plasma before getting vaccinated.
