Before these transplant abuses came to light in the past few months. A couple of years ago, I took myself off of the donor card you can fill out with your license. I was already a skeptic before Covid. The way physicians and nurses acted during Covid, further convinced me, they could not be trusted to make the best decision for me as a patient.
I would advise everyone to do this. If, for instance, you are in an automobile accident, how concerted will the efforts be to save your life, after learning that you are an organ donor? Something to consider before checking off those boxes on your driver's license renewal form. I too, no longer trust hospitals after what happened to trusting & vulnerable patients during covid. Sadly, I say this as a retired hospital staff nurse.
I agree Debra! Retired RN with retired licensed because of Covid debacle and sad that this has been happening! I’m also a caregiver for 3 years now so getting my contact hours was not realistic. I never desired to be a donor. Not for a selfish reason either. Just didn’t choose that route. Now I see why! Oh my! We have a broken medical system!
Falling under this same vein- hospitals should not be allowed to Deny transplant patients if not vaccinated! As far as I know, this is STILL happening in most hospitals. Even if the patient has a dedicated donor. The donor too, is denied, if, not vaccinated.
A first step should be to reclaim the original definition of a vaccine, which the CDC changed on 9/1/2021, to match the products that they were pushing on everyone. These products are not & never were vaccines, which themselves, are problematic. Even the original SEC filings state that they are gene therapy (though I would hesitate to call them therapy, since they are anything but therapeutic). Once that has been re-established, the emphasis needs to be on the right to reject any medical procedure, including the right to reject a conventional or traditional vaccine. Hospitals have incrementally usurped patient's rights in recent years & this needs to stop.
If people knew the items that were in these injections - most people would have rejected them. Did doctors know what was in childhood vaccines? Brain-damaging elements like aluminum and mercury; and a slew of other substances, which should be considered a 'witchdoctor's brew." Those who trusted their educated doctors, and I was one of them; wound up nearly killing my first son.. I nearly lost him from these toxic lab-created injections...designed to make money for the manufacturer. In 2010, I came across a book, which was shocking. It was entitled Vaccination is NOT Immunization by Dr. Tim O'Shea. He listed all the items that were in the vaccines that children were given in order to attend school. I finally understood why my son reacted so strongly, when he was given vaccines. He was being injected with matter that was poisonous to the human body.
Another good book, is, "Crooked" - Man-Made Disease Explained, by Forrest Maready. We need to be screaming from the rooftops. Between all of the babies that die soon after being vaccinated, to all of the autism & other neurological injuries among the vaccinated, it is unconscionable that the medical community keeps denying the association.
I have Crooked: Man-made Diseases Explained...and a whole slew of other books in my library on health and vaccines. Dr. Robert Mendelsohn who was a pediatrician for 30 years warned people in the 1980s about vaccines. He stopped using them for his family and patients. He wrote: How to Raise a Healthy Child: In Spite of Your Doctor
My friend’s father needed a kidney. In order for him to even get on the donor list, Mass General mandated he get a Covid shot that he did not want. He’d already had Covid.
My friend’s father was dead less than 48 hours later. 😢
Solely because hospitals receive compensation and then “meet metrics.” They know that the risks waaay outweigh any conceivable (non existent) benefit. They don’t care, or are forced not to care.
While I am on.. I actually did read this article and others like it. I have a hard time believing that this can be true: it is not ethical but then again medical practices have been not only broken for a long time but the "organ" donation has always had a cloak of secrecy to it. People are mystified and yet somehow feel they want to help the greater good by checking YES to organ donation on their driver's license. Having worked in medicine and also having worked in a hospital.. and a Blood bank where one learns about the immunohematology and compatibility of blood and organs..which is HIGHLY complex and also managed very poorly by various Agencies... or organizations. I am still a member of the ASCP (American Society of Clinical Pathology) which in the past decade (I joined in 1993 after I already worked for NIH and had my B.S in molecular chemistry and biology.. (a mistake on my part, I should have never become an Med Tech.. hated it, that is another issue.. I didn't work long in the hospitals.. because I had also taken Computer programming and quickly went into Medical DBA: To the point about the "SALE OF ORGANS" and what I consider unethical and illegal use of ORGANS by Hospitals. This whole topic resurfaced when James O Keefe did his documentary on Planned Parenthood where he actually filmed Planned Parenthood Execs and Doctors talking about the sale of aborted baby parts. This was so repulsive and amazing to me that I did do a lot of research on it. Apparently CHINA is main CULPRIT and uses mass harvesting of organs. Check this out: https://youtu.be/DxH7L__6cWA?si=zQPGbkWePG1u1f3S from UTUBE which discusses the Kentucky Organ Affiliates.. it is totally shocking and repulsive. Because I knew about the complexity of organ donation I HAVE ALWAYS ADVISED EVERYONE TO NEVER SAY YES on the organ donation on their Driver's LICENSE.. like in STATE OF VIRGINIA THINK ABOUT THAT.. LONG AND HARD.. LIKE CHINA.. ORGAN DONATIONS.. check out that UTUBE.. makes me wonder about this MEDICINE and I have for many years.
Yes, indeed! "Medicine Must Be Moral or It Is Nothing" Agree completely! But the NY Times is claiming an ethical position, too. Whose standards? Whose ethics? Either life is sacred or it is not. Dr. Varon stands for life. God bless him!
I donated a living kidney to my son and that was okay. It was my choice and I would do it again. However I have never signed an organ donor card because I don't trust doctors to ethically make sure I am unviable before chopping me up in case I am in a serious accident. I am not some good looking teenager who doctors will work hard to resuscitate. I am an old guy who does not inspire such herculean efforts.
Our foster daughter's 10-year-old brother, Dennis (under different foster parents), was hit by a car and ended up with swelling on the brain. I felt that, as soon as they heard he was in foster care, he was on the fast track to being killed since the doctor stated that he was sure, within hours of the accident, that Dennis would never recover. That night, Social Services contacted their confused grandmother (who later told us that she didn't understand the call) and received permission to remove support and take his organs for transplant. By the next morning, Dennis' organs had been removed (per the hospital) and his body had been delivered to the morgue. The foster parents were given no say in the decision to remove support, and no time was given to ascertain if the swelling would go down. If protocols, including a waiting time, had been implemented, perhaps my daughter would still have her brother today.
"Its not only adults. Pediatric DCD cases are growing, too, with parental consent forms often filled out under stress, confusion, or duress." This is why we need clear, compassionate and moral directives instead of money incentives. This has gotten so out of hand and yet people have a hard time knowing these details about correct assessment. It truly has become necessary to know the protocols about medical procedures instead of being able to rely on the ethical doctor or nurse. What a crying shame.
Follow the money! Why oh why is that statement so relevant anymore? Thank you for posting this informative column, Dr Malone. We, the public, need to be aware of any “problems” related to our healthcare. Life has gotten so complicated and we need those in the know to help us sort things out.
The problem with the availability of organs, just like the availability of blood, has appeared to have halted any serious work on developing artificial replacements. Seems those artificial hearts did not fill the bill. Has all work on them stopped? Thought 3D modeling had opened doors in that area.
Thank you for this sharing. It's good to see IMA - Dr Varon standing up to be counted on critical medical issues of our time.
I did read of a recent case where a woman was deemed dead, but regained consciousness as they were removing organs. They stopped, but she died two days later.
I further read Secretary Kennedy will be making monitoring a federal responsibility.
Earlier in my life agreed to have my organs harvested should the circumstances make it possible. At this point they are beyond viable.
Clearly transplant is a invaluable opportunity for persons in need. Given appropriate measures, as Dr Veron describes, it can offer solace to loved ones faced with the loss.
One hopes the Secretary will be assuring reforms this system needs including the process Dr Varon has described.
This is just another outcome of the medical industry being led, not by doctors that take and follow the Hippocratic oath, but by bean counting, less than ethical, overly compensated CEOs. The same ones that forced their ERs to follow the highly reimbursed Covid protocols that killed more people than actual Covid, and told their employees to take a highly questionable experimental mRNA injection or be fired. The rot, in the case of BIG Medical, is at the top. That's where to start the process of reform.
This is not news. I read about this years ago, and opted out of organ donation on my next driver's license, shortly afterwards. I am disgusted by the "walk of honor" or whatever YouTube calls it in those syrupy videos.

Way too many trauma victims are not given a chance for their concussive symptoms to resolve before assigning brain death.

I never desired to be a donor. Not for a selfish reason either. Just didn’t choose that route. Now I see why! Oh my! We have a broken medical system!
I did the same thing many years ago. I do not trust the medical establishment.
My license renews in 2 years....I pray I do not get into a life threatening accident before then! YIKES!
I didn't check the organ donor box on my driver's license renewal either. I'm with you.

I am so sorry.

This was all predicted by those who were against the Affordable Care Act aka ObamaCare which is anything but affordable. Yet we still have Crony ACA.

They gotta stop with this covid vaccine crap
