Organ donation law ‘revolution’ starts in Wales

(I’m sorry to late the post.)

【Summary】

Wales has started the new system of organ donation. In this system, people should donate their organs if they don’t declare their intention that they won’t give them. It aims to increase the number of donors, and 34% of the population have already registered to opt in. The Health Minister in Wales said that the revolution will be an important cultural change.

 

【Opinion】

When I red this article, I was very surprised because I’ve never hard the law like this. In many country, including Japan, people who want to donate their organs will unfold their mind. I take objection to this law. Organ donation isn’t easy decision for many people, so I think it isn’t good to make it a law. Moreover, science has made remarkable progress in recent year. One of a good example is “iPS cell”.  We can make a new organ with this cell. So I think it is not necessary to make the law that everybody must make organ donation.
