Yeah, I think the "dead doner" ethics rule is in place for a very good reason. Dr. Moazami and the hospital get paid for every transplant they do, their conflict financial is clear.
Ensuring hospitals are not prematurely ending donors lives is essential to maintaining a large donor pool. If patients have an inclination their life will cut short so they can be harvested they won't sign up.
- tacticalturtle 3y agoI’m signed up to be an organ donor on my driver’s license, and I’ll admit this article gave me some uncomfortable feelings over that fact. If they continue to find “novel” ways of organ donation - they at least need to provide multiple classes of Organ Donor - with one prohibiting this practice.

Would it improve your comfort level if they started by cutting of your head? > they at least need to provide multiple classes of Organ Donor Places do have choices allowing donors to decide which organs, and you could make more specific wishes known in a personal directive. I'm not sure 'classes' makes sense though, as there's a lot of different variables that different people could think should be encoded in an organ donor class.
