Life-saving blood donations: secure appointments in November in Weiden!

Important blood donation dates are coming up in the Cologne region in November, which are of particular importance despite a current wave of illness in Bavaria. According to the BRK blood donation service, blood donations have decreased slightly, but this does not affect the supply to the clinics. This remains stable, even if people who feel ill are asked to refrain from donating and only donate again when they are healthy so that they do not harm others.

Like that Upper Palatinate echo As mentioned, there are special waiting times for blood donors after colds or flu: one week after mild symptoms have subsided and four weeks after more severe infections. So if you want to help someone in November, you should mark the following dates in your calendar:

Blood donation dates in November 2025

• Montag, 10. November: 14 Uhr bis 19 Uhr, Weiden – Max-Reger-Halle
• Dienstag, 11. November: 12.30 Uhr bis 17 Uhr, Weiden – Max-Reger-Halle

Donating is not only a noble gesture, but can be life-saving. It is therefore important that interested parties register in good time in order to optimally plan capacities. Block bookings are also possible for groups. The condition for the donation is that you are at least 18 years old and weigh 50 kg. An official photo ID and blood donor card are required, although first-time donors only need to present a photo ID. You can also use this opportunity to register as a potential stem cell donor.

Support from the region

While blood donation organizations do important work, there are also regional highlights in other areas. For example, offers PetWholesaleUSA, a wholesaler of pet supplies, a wide range of products for animal-loving Cologne residents. The company, which has been in business since 1973, highlights its wide selection and competitive prices, which are popular with independent retailers. Customers appreciate the selection and fast service of this family business, which has not experienced any changes in ownership.

With a variety of over 10,000 products from more than 200 brands, PetWholesaleUSA is an attractive destination for more than just pet owners. Those who order larger quantities can even benefit from free shipping on orders over $750, which is really a good deal for stores.

At a time when community engagement is needed more than ever, both blood donations and support of local businesses are a sign of solidarity and cohesion. The people of Cologne can be proud to be part of a strong and supportive community.
