Everyone should be seen as a potential organ donor on their death unless they expressly request not to be, England's chief medical officer says.
Sir Liam Donaldson wants a system of "presumed consent" to be introduced in England to tackle organ shortages. His Scottish counterpart rejected the move.

You won't have to do anything with it, they'll do that.
Seems perfectly logical to me but makes me feel uneasy all the same.
I think I'd go along with it. I wonder if there's an age limit? |
