    I do believe that growing organs from stem/pluripotent cells and 3D printing organs from a bioprinter would be a permanent solution to the organ transplant crisis (basically, I hope I never end up on a waiting list for a transplant....), but I can't help but be fascinated by the research done into xenografting as well. IIRC only a few countries allow it (Russia being one of them), but studies into transplanting pig organs into human bodies, indeed a possible success story, have been recorded. Science marches on.

    I wonder why not all the world has an opt-out legislation like Austria and several other European countries instead of an opt-in. Everyone's a donor unless he registers as a non-donor. Very, very few people do that here.

    For something as significant as the first historical organ transplant, there is very little information on this, and that source that was listed seems suspect.

    If you need an organ transplant and can't wait a decade or more, move to China and get on the transplant waiting list. They execute a few thousand prisoners every year, and prisoners have no choice but to donate their organs. I don't necessarily agree with the practice of executing prisoners (I personally lean toward keeping them alive and forcing them to work), but it's certainly an interesting way to keep those biobuckets packed with fresh organs, and I do like the idea of obligatory organ donation upon death.
    Side note, I live in a corrupt, dystopian nightmare hellhole, so I have not filled out the organ donor thing on my license... in the off chance I get into a catastrophic traffic accident, I'd prefer the paramedics at least try to save me; I feel as though when they see that organ donor thing they might just walk away and have a smoke to allow me time to die in a mangled pile of human mush for the benefit of harvesting my organs. Wilkommen beim Amerikanischen Reich!
