Organs to be taken without consent

By Patrick Hennessy and Laura Donnelly
Last Updated: 12:01am GMT 13/01/2008

Gordon Brown has thrown his weight behind a move to allow hospitals to take organs from dead patients without explicit consent.

....

The Government will launch an overhaul of the system next week, which will put pressure on doctors and nurses to identify more "potential organ donors" from dying patients. Hospitals will be rated for the number of deceased patients they "convert" into donors and doctors will be expected to identify potential donors earlier and alert donor co-ordinators as patients approach death.

But Mr Brown, who carries a donor card, has made it clear he backs an even more radical revamp of the system, which would lead to donation by "presumed consent". The approach is modelled on that of Spain, which has the highest proportion of organ donors in the world.

26. Why am I worth $100 less if I'm not fat?
I did it again and put in that I was slender rather than fat, just to see a difference.

It told me I'm worth 5975.

32. Martin Luther King Birthday Sale!
All bodies must go!

Some bodies discounted as much as 50% do to floor damage!

No interest payments until the body is actually dead!

Bodies in foreclosure will be auctioned at 10am. Current occupants will be evicted and you can take possesion as soon as the bank papers are signed.
