Is it true that doctors let registered organ donors die on purpose to harvest their organs?
Partly. One skeptical forum answer and a fragmentary book exchange deny that organs are harvested from donors who could have lived, while a Wikipedia article alleges forced organ harvesting from prisoners in China. None of the placed items settles the general claim about registered donors in mainstream transplant systems.
