So there should be greater support for working to fix the entire situation, to build organs as needed, and remove the enormous expense and scarcity in the existing system.
Decellarization to make more donor organs viable, or enable the use of pig organs. Tissue engineering to build new organs from a patient's own cells. But people spend too much time focused on what is and not enough on how they can help to make a better situation through technological progress.
Anyone can help the New Organ project, for example, as it consists of advocacy and research prizes to accelerate progress. You don't have to be a researcher to help make a difference in the matter of organ availability.
