On the shore of the West Lake in the cold winter, there is no hustle and bustle of the past. However, a group of people are extraordinarily warm because of their actions.
At noon on February 5, more than a dozen citizens spontaneously came to donate blood at the blood donation point on Hubin Pedestrian Street of Zhejiang Provincial Blood Center.

Donate blood while enjoying the scenery
After "00", the sports students said that they were not nervous
At 11 a.m., the blood donation house opened, and it was a mother and son who led the way into the house.
After my son Xiao Zhong was "00", he just started the winter vacation of college, and today he and his mother came to the West Lake for a walk, and when they saw that there was a blood donation point, they decided to donate some love.
After a careful examination, ** carefully inserted the needle, and Xiao Zhong calmly completed the blood drawing process.
I am donating blood for the first time, 400ml. Xiao Zhong told reporters that he was a sports student, and he was not nervous about the blood donation process, so he felt that he was just drawing blood. "I didn't feel bad after smoking. ”

At the same time, Xiao Zhong's mother, Ms. Yu, also joined the ranks of blood donation.
Ms. Yu began donating blood in 1998 and has donated more than 10 times since then, with a total of more than 4,000ml.
This is my blood donation card, and the subway ride is free. Ms. Yu said that she happened to take her son out to play today, and also encouraged him to give a little love.
After more than ten minutes of recovery time, "Su Dongpo" sent a red envelope to the mother and son.
Ms. Yu won a Dongpo Jushi milk tea coupon, and the redemption point was near the West Lake in the south of the cottage, about 100 meters away.
Thank you, I was really lucky today. The reporter followed the mother and son to the scene to exchange, walked for 2 minutes, and the clerk quickly made a cup of hot milk tea after receiving the exchange coupon.

Zhejiang Provincial Blood Center Blood Collection** Mao Wensi said in an interview that according to past experience, the number of surgeries in the hospital during the Spring Festival will decrease, and when the surgery resumes after the holiday, the demand for blood will increase.
In terms of the process of blood donation, first fill in the blood donation registration form, conduct a physical examination, and then conduct a preliminary screening test, and you can donate blood if you pass the preliminary screening results. You need to rest for 10 minutes after donating blood, and the whole process is about 20 to 30 minutes.
During the Spring Festival, there are also people on duty at the lakeside point. Mao Wensi said.

If you have a cold or a physical condition after surgery, we will also remind you to postpone blood donation. In addition, ensuring adequate sleep, avoiding fasting, and avoiding nervousness are the precautions for blood donation, Mao Wensi added.
It is worth mentioning that like Ms. Yu, who has donated more than 4,000 ml of blood, can apply for the honorary certificate of unpaid blood donation in Zhejiang Province and enjoy the "three exemptions" discount (i.e., free public transportation, free tour of the park sponsored by ** investment and exemption from paying the general outpatient consultation fee of public hospitals).
I thought I had to have an empty stomach to donate blood. Ms. Jing sat on the sofa and volunteers prepared satiety foods such as eight-treasure porridge and biscuits for her. "First time here, no experience. ”
Ms. Jing told reporters that 2023 is a successful year for herself, and her work and life are going well. "I have blood type B and I want to help people in need. ”
Regarding the opening hours of blood donation points in Hangzhou during the Spring Festival, you can pay attention to Zhejiang Provincial Blood Center*** to view the weekly plan of blood donation points.
