Benefits Of Unwinding

Improved Essays
Unwinding could benefit society in many ways.

To begin with, patients who are in desperate need of organs can be guaranteed one from an Unwind and do not need to suffer through the hassle of waiting lists due to limited donors. For example, Admiral Dunfee needed a healthy heart as he was in critical condition due to a heart attack. The hospital staff said that he needed a heart transplant and that there were plenty of healthy young hearts, but the Admiral refused to have a transplant knowing that they were from Unwinds. The significance of this scene subtly shows that organs can be readily available at any time for any person. Emby is another example of how unwinding is beneficial. He had pulmonary fibrosis and urgently needed a healthy lung. Although his parents were only able to afford an asthmatic lung, the lung that was from an Unwind saved his life. Without any Unwinds to be donors, patients who need transplants would die.

Additionally, the effect of ceasing the operations of harvest camps will consequently demand for a higher need for scientists to spend time researching to try to find a cure for diseases when it would be much easier to replace the affected body part with an Unwind’s.

An example of the disciplinary perk that comes with The Bill of Life is when Tyler is confronting his parents through CyFi and pleads to them, “Please. Do anything. But don’t unwind me.” after revealing the hidden jewelry he stole that was buried in the backyard. Although Tyler has kleptomaniac tendencies, especially to objects that are shiny, he knew the consequences of stealing and begged his parents for forgiveness.

    Survival of the Sickest Analysis In Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection, Darwin suggests that those organisms that possess certain characteristics that give them an advantage over other organisms, are to be more likely to survive and pass on their traits to other organisms of their species through reproduction. Thus, through evolution, all life on earth is bound to only get stronger and improve its chances of survival - or be completely eradicated, as the organisms that do not possess advantageous traits do not survive to reproduce and the traits that make a species weaker will gradually be eliminated. However, though evolution eliminates unfavorable traits it has allowed countless…

In addition, an article by The American Transplant Foundation, titled “Facts and Myths,” states that at minimum, 21 people out of 123,000 men, women and children on the organ transplant list join the death rate every day. Incidentally, a single person can donate their body and save up to 8 lives. Thus if 20,000 of the 151,600 deceased donated their body, less people in need of a transplant would die.

An example of research to inform policy or practice can be underprivileged children in deprived areas of Britain, as they have more of a risk of suffering from respiratory diseases.
