........

When Hoover started thrashing and crying, he was sedated and doctors still planned on going forward with the organ recovery, according to NPR. The transplant was ultimately cancelled leading to several employees quitting.

The guy is visibly alive, so you sedate him and continue trying to harvest his organs, and then quit when you're told "no, don't pull organs out of this living guy"? Disgusting.

Fake news. The original NPR article very clearly says they quit because they ALMOST harvested organs from an alive person and a supervisor was pushing them to go forward with it.

Thanks for the info. Glad the employees still had some morals, and that supervisor is a monster.

As is typical of hospital supervisors, like we saw during the kung flu. Human life means nothing to hospital management compared to making money. Hospital supervisors belong on a cross.

I have to point out that the workers were likely locals, (kentucky) so they were appalachian, supervisor prolly wasnt.

If this happened anywhere else, I dont have faith that the people would speak up and stop what is happening.

Im fairly certain this shit is happening on the regular in nova scotia since it became the first opt out organ donation "state/province" in north america. I have no proof of course, but theres so many storys of people getting a brain injury and they get put down the first night.

Didnt we used to give people weeks or months before pulling the plug? lol?

Think im making this up? Two stories off the top of my head.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/system-broken-woman-dies-emergency-room-1.6707596

Holthoff said the room flooded with people, while he was sent to the hallway. A doctor later told him they resuscitated Allison three times — to no avail.

"Even if she would have survived at that point ... she had too long a time without sufficient blood flow to the brain and vital organs. It would have been not a life worth living," he said.

This article frames it like she died of natural causes....

https://halifax.citynews.ca/2023/01/09/nova-scotia-man-wants-answers-after-wife-dies-following-seven-hour-er-wait-6352502/

Medical officials were preparing for possible surgery when the decision was made that she had deteriorated to the point where she couldn’t be helped. She died later that evening, Holthoff said.

He said he still doesn’t know her official cause of death and wants answers from the provincial government so both he and the public can have confidence in the health system.

They denied this woman timely medical care, and after it nearly killed her, they put the final death blow and reaped her organs, I fucking bet you.

https://globalnews.ca/news/9920010/davelle-desmond-homicide-halifax-waterfront-investigation-friends/

This guy gets assaulted by a group of teens and gets put in a coma. They put him down after a night, and I will bet they asked for his organs but being black hopefully his family knew better. I dont know if it matters really though when its opt out, seems like asking the family is just a formality.

Again the article makes it sound like he died of natural causes.

She said he was without a pulse for about 30 minutes before he was declared to be braindead, eventually dying in the hospital.

HOW ARE YOU "brain dead" WITHOUT A PULSE for 30 minutes, would you not be dead dead?

They are harvesting people in this province, and I have no doubts about it. After all they did poison me with freon, cover it up, and now im likely dying from it.

These people are pure evil, make no mistake.

There's more to this particular part. It stuck out to me too. Could it be that certain employees quit in sympathy protest for the guy that they had almost been forced to kill due to doctor's orders? Quitting in anger because they didn't successfully murder him seems incredibly brazen, but I wouldn't put it past doctors and nurses. It's also possible that they quit in fear, not protest, having been rumbled. They could skedaddle for the horizon and get re-hired by any other hospital, since they all do the same thing and the important thing is to cover for the system.

That's fair, and a more hopeful interpretation. Hopefully you are correct, in which case the the wording in the tweet needs to be fixed since it says the cancellation led to the quitting.

Well to be clear I don't hold the sympathetic interpretation as any more likely than pre-emptive quitting in cynical self-interest. Either's possible. And I'm a bad gambler, so watch the truth turn out to be the one about them quitting in anger at being questioned. "You think you hate them enough..."

Bro the shit I've seen working in a hospital. It's a business. And organ procurement organizations are a series of state by state private monopolies that run the organ harvesting business. They will show up with a lawyer or two if necessary and their primary goal is to make money harvesting organs.

If you haven't already I highly recommend you remove yourself from the organ donor registry because they WILL 100% use that little checkbox you checked when you were 16 getting your drivers license at the DMV to override anything else your family says when they can.

Organs are big business, but not for you.

Medical malpractice and pharmaceutical drugs are among the leading causes of death for a reason. Trusting the medical industry is generally a very bad idea.

Seconded. I couldn't remove my name fast enough when doctors started bragging about skipping over recipients for refusing to take the covid vax. The entire system and everyone involved in it is evil. Do not support these demons.

I'm not on it but I expect my organs to be harvested anyway.

My first assumption is they quit because they were told to fucking murder a man because of a horrific failure in procedures, and the post was just poorly worded

But after seeing how many people joined the COVID Gestapo, I guess I don't have enough faith to say with certainty it didn't go down the way you describe without double checking...

There was an article years ago (Newsweek, Rolling Stone, can't remember the publication) where a bunch of doctors admitted that they had pulled organs out of people who were awake enough to react to being cut open. The tone of the article was pretty much "people can be totes dead and still whimper, cry and moan in pain as their body gets cut open and their organs removed!"
