Two-Day Blood Drive April 3-4 Highlights Critical Need for Type O Donors, Both Positive and Negative

Extended Hours Allow for Additional Appointments at JW Marriott Las Vegas and Rampart Casino

JW Marriott Resort & Spa Las Vegas and Rampart Casino, in conjunction with Vitalant, to host two-day blood drive April 3-4. Now, the team has extended donor hours to 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to allow for additional appointments.

  • While all blood types are needed, there’s a critical need for type O blood donations—the most transfused blood type. Type O donors can maximize their impact by giving a Power Red donation when two units of red cells are given, and other blood components are safely and comfortably returned to the donor.
  • About 39% of the population is type O-positive—the most common blood type that can be given to nearly any other patient with a positive blood type.
  • About 9% of the population is type O-negative—the universal blood type that can be transfused to patients with positive or negative blood types.
  • Vitalant continues to test donations for COVID-19 antibodies; if positive, Vitalant can produce convalescent plasma from blood, platelet or plasma donations while the other blood components can help patients with serious medical conditions.
  • There is no deferral period for whole blood donations for those who have been vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine.
  • Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs a blood transfusion.
  • The community donors continue to be the key to saving lives in 2021.
