Organ donor cards hard to implement in China, says deputy health minister

A system of donor cards indicating consent for organ transplants will not work in China as families will insist on having the final say, and many people see nothing wrong in using organs from executed prisoners, an official said on Friday.

Nearly 1.5 million people in China need transplants every year, but only 10,000 can get organs, according to the Health Ministry. Reported by S.China Morning Post 4 hours ago.
