If I don’t expressly object, I will donate organs automatically after death – what does such a proposal look like? Switzerland will vote on this motion. To reduce queues for organ transplants, the Swiss government and parliament reportedly want to amend the law to use the “presumptive consent” model already in place in many other European countries. Currently in Switzerland, organs from the deceased can only be removed for transplantation with the consent of the deceased. Switzerland has a population of about 8.6 million. According to a survey, about 80% of Swiss people support organ donation, but the wishes of the deceased are often unknown, and most relatives will refuse to donate organs. Statistics show that by the end of 2021, there were more than 1,400 patients in Switzerland waiting for organ transplants, but only 166 deceased donated organs last year, and the cumulative number of deceased donated organs was only 484. However, according to the Swiss Organ Donation and Transplantation Foundation, 72 people in Switzerland will die in 2021 while waiting for an organ transplant. .
