The patient had the organ transplanted at a hospital in Ohio in December and died in January, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services spokesperson Lynn Sutfin said.
A subsequent investigation that also involved the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Ohio Department of Health determined the patient got rabies from the donated organ. Sutfin did not specify which organ was transplanted.
Not nearly well publicized enough.
While I believe organ donation should be opt out rather than opt in, I also think that it should be a strictly non-profit with severe criminal penalties for putting any dollar value on the organs.
Doctors, labs, nurses, etc all get what they normally get, but fuck the organ harvesting industry in general.
