Reply to comment by Y34rZer0 in ELI5 how the illegal trade of human organs works? by C20_H26_N2O
Yeah I heard about it a lot too. But what made me doubt about this kind of dealing is the screening of the organ. Don’t they have to be compatible first to the receiver for it to be feasible? They can’t just randomly get organs from the state prisoner just because there’s someone who needs it.

Yeah but I guess they approach it like a used car dealership. If The model out front isn’t suitable for you then we’ve probably got something else that is.
I also imagine that this kind of thing would go through Chinese doctors etc.
I mean it sounds awful but if it saves some kids life when the prisoner is going to be executed anyway?
Although that’s the type of argument the Nazi doctors at Auschwitz used so I’m Lost in a moral quagmire at the moment
