Animal Testing There has been a long debate on whether animal should be used as a main source of testing Animals have been experimented and tested on for centuries. People came up with the idea that if they were unsure how a substance or compound would react on them, they started to use the same chemical on animal to see the results. They would then compare the results with the humans once they were used as test subjects. Animals have proven to be a source for testing since they have similar…

In MIT Student Joanna MacKay’s essay, Organ Sales Will Save Lives, she argues that the selling of human organs should be legalized. She mentions that government regulation of human organs would save lives since people are suffering and dying. No drugs can cure a failed kidney so people use dialysis, a long, expensive, temporary solution. MacKay notes that in the year 2000 there were 2,583 American deaths waiting for a transplant and 50,000 worldwide (157). There is a long wait list for…

The author thought that this article would be of interest because it is rare for someone to donate a kidney to a stranger, it is even rarer for someone to be willing to donate both of their kidneys to strangers, 15 million dollars in cash donations to charity, and another 6.2 million of property donations. Zell Kravinsky is a unique case of selfnesses with his concern for the welfare of others. (Storm, 2003) The main ethical issue being discussed with the Storm article is whose life is more…

Nowadays, many liver transplant operations take place in the world because they can save patients’ lives. Unfortunately, the waiting times for liver transplants are long. In the United States, for instance, according to University of California San Francisco Medical Center, "there are over 17,000 patients on the liver waiting list, but only enough donated livers to perform about 5,000 transplants per year." (1) Many patients may die while they are still on these waiting lists. Thus, these…

There is a great deal of speculation of whether or not organ selling should be legal. Stephen Wilkinson states that organ sale is the selling of organs to give to another person, in the hopes of getting a paycheck. There are two ways to do this: paying people money for their body after they pass or to pay the patient’s family for their deceased loved ones’ organs (Wilkinson 2011). The United States has already developed a way to aid those who need organs receive a healthy one through a process…

This obsession with manipulating death and life through science led to anatomy theaters becoming a source of entertainment, as death and gore became less shocking. There was also a significant increase in grave-robberies to satisfy the scientific demand for corpses. As a result of these exploitations, society debated scientific…

Introduction Imagine, being in the ICU, still fighting for those last moments of life. This is the position of hundreds of people in need of an organ transplant every single day. How would it feel to know that millions of people out there are capable of saving lives, but no one’s stepping up? As many as 18 people die every day waiting for an organ. For many that might not seem like a lot but at this rate, that is almost 6500 deaths each year. But there is a better, effective, and more efficient…
