People who aren't registered donors should also be denied organ donations
Absent
It'd been a wasted heart if they died from preventable disease. Organ donors are a rare breed... Requirements need to be strict.

Happy for the next person on the list who will cherish that donated heart & will do what it takes to live a long healthy life.
duoplicity
Other people get vaccinated in part to protect people like him :(

INeverReadTheTOS
That's fine. Most of them don't have one in the first place.
bro02tc
He went and showed them. His stupidity and own ignorance has signed his death certificate
erroniousmaximus
It is his body and his choice to get the vaccine, but unfortunately other people get a say on if they’ll give him a new organ. If he can’t 1
erroniousmaximus
Take care of what he’s got, why give him something new knowing he’ll have an increased chance of dying and wasting a critical organ.
diesoz
I appreciate the article. Makes it clear he's an idiot and not incapable of receiving the vaccine.
lindabelchersfirstcousin
Against his basic principles to get vaxxed but he’s cool w heart transplant?! Dumbest shit I’ve read all morning.
MrListerTheFirst
"Where did that heart come from? I don't know what's in it! It's full of microchips, isn't it?"
SterlingArcherSecretAgent
Might even be "infected" with the vaccine, if the donor was vaxxed lol
HelloThisIsYourMotherSpeaking
how about a brain transplant for the dude?
NightlinerSGS
He's off that list as well.
kestrelhawk55
His body, his choice...and he's choosing death over a vaccination. That's not integrity, that's plain stupidity.

They also refuse liver transplants alcoholics. Limited resources go to those it won’t be wasted on.
socrates20
Why did he need a heart, they don’t believe in science
semiautonomicbiologicalunit
Taking bets on how many lawyers are lined up to help the family sue the hospital after he dies
BrickShakes
This is standard practice, if you refuse to keep in good health the transplant is not worth it.
EaNasirsExcellentHighGradeCopper
Yeah, people are making it sound like this is some targeted attack on antivaxxers, and its not, organs are precious and in short supply, and
EaNasirsExcellentHighGradeCopper
they don't give them to idiots who dont take every precaution to protect them, especially since organ transplants require supressing the
EaNasirsExcellentHighGradeCopper
immune system to keep the body from attacking it.

Idiots
SaveitforQueenDoppelpoppolus
transplants require a pretty strict regime of immunosuppressants etc. if you don't listen about the vax, why would you about transplant meds
SaveitforQueenDoppelpoppolus
this is different than "unvaxxed people shouldn't be treated" - there is history of denying transplants to people who wont take care of them
SaveitforQueenDoppelpoppolus
although also literally zero sacrifices should be made to treat unvaxxed people for covid
keppler38
I loathe this pro choice argument for anti vax but I hope it fuels the actual pro choice groups.

FourScoreAndSevenBeersAgo
Looks like doctors and nurses are sick of all these mouth breathing anti vaxxers' shit.
MoarCatsPleez
He can sue?
RigoryMorty
Sure, but he won't win. Also, he won't live long enough to see it through.

This dude will join Kyle Rittenhouse as a Faux News idol... insane

Some old lady at CVS was watching an anti-vaxxer FB video yelling about this yesterday and started talking to another old lady about it 1/2
GrapeHero
in the pharmacy line yesterday. “Can you believe they won’t do it because he won’t take their stupid vaccine?” The “their” really angered me
ElbowDeepInUserSub
If it's 'their' vaccine, it's 'their' heart. "My heart, my choice."

I think his wife will have a hard time explaining to their 3 kids why daddy didn't love them enough to get a shot.
uberpwnagecartman
Can you imagine leaving your wife and kids over this when you could have been given such a rare and precious gift with little effort
SmellingMistake
Super easy, barely an inconvenience. Just blame those "commie Democrats" and Bill Gates or some stupid shit.

Timing seems odd. He was prioritized until 2022 and then kicked to the curb? Feels like there has to be more to the story to me.
ligmabolz
Yeah , until they found a heart and looked into his vaccination status
01010101011100110110010101110010011011100110000101101101e
No, there's no more to it. Scarce organs go to people with the highest chance of surviving. Refusing a vaccine drops you down that list
01010101011100110110010101110010011011100110000101101101e
As stated, there are many vaccines you need to have and he probably didn't deny any of the other ones.
