Some unknown but probably large number of people is executed in China every year. Some of them are Uyghurs.
For organ transplantation, a corpse is a corpse, whether they died in a traffic accident or were executed doesn't matter (except probably execution by poison as practiced in the US).
So yes, executed Uyghurs are used as organ donors in China, but the causality is inverted: they're not killed for organ harvesting, they have their organs harvested because they were killed.
- barneygale 6y agoExecution dates are set based on organ demand and surgeon availability. It really is that shitty.
- engineer_22 6y agoYou have many comments sympathetic to the CCP. Your suggestions on the topic of organ harvesting are unsubstantiated, and significant evidence has been presented to the contrary.
- yorwba 6y ago> You have many comments sympathetic to the CCP. I do? What gave you that impression? I oppose death sentences on principle (hard to reverse in case of wrongful conviction), so I would count my comment above as unsympathetic to the CCP. > significant evidence has been presented to the contrary Evidence that Uyghurs would not be killed if there was no shortage of organs for transplantation? What evidence?
