Organ donor law named after Max and Keira set to pass in England
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-47359682No. I'm not having my body harvested for spare parts. Sorry, not sorry.
Organ donation is the choice of the person, my family are well aware of my choice as is my doctor. I have been an organ donor all my life and this does not sit well with me. I am seriously considering opting out if it comes into force. There has to be proper and serious protections in place to stop harvesting against a persons wishes and beliefs.
Slippery slope..... Soylent Green anyone?
It's a sad day when you can't even have the default position being that you own your own body and it belongs to the state.
Disgusting and wrong.
I would have left it to relatives, but evil must be opposed so I will, resentfully as theft should never be any basis of assumption, 'opt out' of being body part snatched.
i worry that treatment of the donor may be curtailed to aid death for organ harvesting purposes , I would be fearful if I was a remainer that the doctors may not try hard enough to save me for instance
You didn’t order it...but you come home to find new double glazing fitted.........
Company says you didn’t opt out of getting it fitted and you must pay......
See any comparison here??...........
I shall opt out. Not because I'm against organ donation, it's because I object to being effectively forced to be a doner by a nannying government.
I'm quite capable of making decisions for myself and my family will know my views. They are the only one's who need to know my decisions.
I had previously actively opted-in. Since once again government over steps its bounds and interferes with our individual liberty. I will now actively opt-out. Who do these Marxists think they are?
How long will it be before The State decides that it not only owns your body in death to do with as it will, it also owns your body in life as well to do likewise, then following on from that your thoughts
Although we already have religion to take care of that for you, telling you what to think and do
An average 67% voluntary donation level seems acceptable, you can't save everyone, accept that
Where are we living exaclty? CHINA!!??
It's my body and I decide what happens to it after I'm dead, not the lefties.
A rule of thumb any law named after a person is a bad law.
The reason is it is cobbled together to deal with a newspaper campaign, often riddled with ill thought out problems & stacked to the rafters with unforeseen circumstances.
The obvious 1 here is the state owns your body, people should be aware tissue & skin also could mean seeing your dead relatives face on someone else
Where does this end? How many "foreign" organs would you accept and when do you stop being the same person? A transplant means you have to take drugs forever to shut down your immune system to stop your body rejecting the organ. It does not have your DNA.
Currently I carry an organ donor card, if the Scottish government passes this law, I'l opt out, those people stick their noses in everywhere!
Body snatching comes from history not films. Digging up of bodies to use for medical learning, teaching.
Emotion is irrelevant, and the problem. Bad or wrong laws invented for mere sob stories. Principles govern lives or should. Not emotion. This is an assumption to steal, its fundamentally wrong. It also removes all gratitude, no more 'gifts'.
Soppy emotive evil law.
All the people running around, cycling, going to the gym and eating sensibly have just become mobile organ banks waiting to be harvested for everything from skin to bone
If I was a cyclist I'd be extremely worried right about now as they literally take their, I mean The State's life's in their hands every time they get on a bike
They'll be stripped for spare parts faster than an old Ford Fiesta
I am actually sickened that government believes it can mandate what happens to our bodies. What next, they allocate everyone a sexual partner because we do not make the "right" choice by ourselves?
