The part where if some one 'more in need' needs an organ, there have been reports of doctors choosing to let a patient die because they're an organ donor. And thank you for being a hero about it, I didn't say every single doctor in America is doing this...but there are cases of this happening because they believe another is more in need of an organ. And I understand that's a personal choice they make and I get the appeal of saving a young person who needs a heart or something difficult to get on a list...but some people, again not all, will choose to let another die to donate that organ.
Again, thank you for your heroic act of doing your job, but there are shi*** people out there too. And I can only speak from my experiences and knowledge as well. My ignorance can only be solved with research and other facts but you can't prove it doesn't happen. So...sorry.
@Lyaen Doctors have no say over who donates organs or even if organs get taken by a placement coordinator and moved to any number of hospitals. This isn't the black market, it is a strictly regulated and audited industry with competitive employment and genuinely difficult certification requirements. And that's on top of already needing a wealth of experience in the Healthcare industry, with preference for those who are at the bedside. It is not your fault you are ignorant about the process either, and I truly don't hold it against you. Organ donation and the process behind it is very rarely taught or even talked about in a constructive or educational way, and it thus leads to misunderstandings like Doctors letting patients die so they can donate organs to someone who needs them more. That's just not how the donation process works, as Doctors have no control over where any individual or package organs go. More than that, there's never a guarantee that consent will be given to donate organs by the family, even if that person is an organ donor. The myth that Doctors let patients die to organ traffick is propoganda meant to shake your trust not just in Organ Donation services and the lives they save, but also in modern medicine and medical professionals as a whole by showing doubt and mistrust. I do not know the region you live in, or the service that would cover it, but the company I have had personal experience with a few years ago is called Cascade Life Alliance, and I can't recommend checking out their page enough. They have an entire subsection just about the donation process and what goes into donation as a whole. Please check it out, if nothing more than to broaden your horizons.
