02:22. So when they're doing the transplantation on people they say are brain dead . . .
02:28. They're all alive . . . . They give paralyzing agents when they take the organs so that they don't move and they don't squirm . . .
02:35. Oh, that's so horrible.
02:38. And even if they don't move and don't squirm they cut on them and their heart rate goes up and their blood pressure goes up, which is the response to pain but they can't demonstrate that they have pain
02:50. . . . because they're paralyzed
02:51. Because they paralyze them.
US Healthcare, The Guardian: Kentucky man declared brain dead wakes up during organ harvesting: the case of Anthony Thomas TJ Hoover the second is under investigation by state and federal government officials.
After being taken to a hospital for a drug overdose, Anthony Hoover woke up in the middle of having surgeons cutting him open to harvest his organs. Hoover's sister noticed his eyes open and look around with emotion but she was told that it was just reflexes. The staff told his family that Hoover had given permission for his organs to be donated and that he was declared to be "brain dead." According to a witness, he woke up and began thrashing around, crying, and making attempts to speak, which was ignored by doctors at first. An hour later, the doctors finally stopped because he was showing too many signs of life. Hoover is now recovering from these wounds.
00:51. This is not an abnormal event.
"Brain Death Is False," Paul A. Byrne, MD, Rev. George M. Rinkowski. Dr. Byrne, a neonatologist in Toledo Ohio, is a clinical professor of pediatrics at the Medical College of Ohio.
Father Rinkowski is retired from Parish work and remains active in Consulting on moral matters as well as making himself available when a priest is needed by a critically ill patient.
In the medical industry, there is a huge demand for living organs, which is why the term "brain dead" was invented.
Dr. Byrne: jaw-dropping discussion with one of the founders of neonatal-perinatal medicine.
The way it occurred was that Christiaan Bernard did the first heart transplant in South Africa in 1967. Three days later, they did the second heart transplant, and you don't know where that is but I'll tell you. It was done in Brooklyn, New York. What they did is they cut the beating heart out of a 3-day-old baby and transplanted it into an 18-day-old baby, and at the end of their surgeries, a short time after the end of their surgeries, both of those babies were dead. It was illegal. It was immoral, and so they had to do something to make it legal. And so what they did, they set up a committee at Harvard, [1968] and the committee invented "brain death." The committee did not do studies on dogs or cats or rats. They didn't collect data on human beings. They just invented "brain death." It doesn't get better, it keeps getting worse after that. A lot of people think that brain death means "flat brain waves." They're not even required to do brain wave testing. The way they did that, they studied 9 patients, and 2 of the nine still had brainwave activity, and then they concluded no longer is it necessary to look at brain waves. So it's not required to look for brain wave activity.
02:22. So when they're doing the transplantation on people they say are brain dead . . .
02:28. They're all alive . . . . They give paralyzing agents when they take the organs so that they don't move and they don't squirm . . .
02:35. Oh, that's so horrible.
02:38. And even if they don't move and don't squirm they cut on them and their heart rate goes up and their blood pressure goes up, which is the response to pain but they can't demonstrate that they have pain
02:50. . . . because they're paralyzed
02:51. Because they paralyze them. So they can't respond by . . .
that's horrible horrible horrible horrible.
03:00. It gets really bad if you pay attention to it.
0304: apparently we are having a human organ shortage.
How do we meet the national Oregon shortage? Dr. Fairchild is collaborating with Cleveland Clinic's Transplant Center to increase the number of organs available and increase success of the transplant procedures. The research effort is part of a system-wide initiative at Cleveland Clinic to increase successful organ transplants. Transplant numbers overall went up 18% year over year from 2020 to 2021.
0308: The United States has a very severe organ shortage.
03:13. Every year, there are over 100,000 people waiting for organs, and there's additions on a weekly basis to that list and fewer people coming off the list and so we are in this constant state of crisis trying to find an Oregon for people in need.

The demand for human organs is much greater than the available Supply and while we are mostly told about the lifesaving aspect of organ donation, private industry is hungry for young living bodies.

Drug overdoses are now one of the leading causes of death in Oregon donors especially among young people.
Drug overdoses have spiked since the opioid epidemic started sweeping the nation and health experts say that the only silver lining has been the increase in life-saving organs for transplants.
Organ donors who have died from drug overdoses have increased 500% --WSLS10: OPIOID NATION: AN AMERICA EPIDEMIC

That's huge.
