WINDSOR TERRACE The number of people willing to step forward to donate their organs to save a life has seen a precipitous decline in the age of COVID-19, according to medical experts.
United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), a non-profit organization that manages the country’s organ transplant system for the U.S. government, reported that donations from living donors had decreased 90 percent since March. The availability of organs from deceased donors has plummeted by nearly 50 percent during that same time. Transplant patients generally have greater longevity when they receive organs from living donors.
