Safe + saves lives: Organ donation in the developed world - and in the us - is completely transparent, never covert. Donation only occurs after death declaration. The myth about not caring for people to promote donation is untrue. Procedure takes place like any operation - in an or. Open casket funeral is still an option. One person's organs save 7 or 8 lives and tissue helps many others. I am a registered donor.
