Organ donation laws
Organ donation laws typically require individuals to opt in or opt out of donating their organs after death. Many countries use a "presumed consent" system, where people are considered donors unless they explicitly refuse. Others require explicit permission. Laws also govern how organs are allocated fairly to recipients based on medical need and compatibility. Additionally, strict regulations ensure ethical practices, consent procedures, and prevent organ trafficking. Overall, these laws aim to increase organ availability to save lives while respecting individual rights and ensuring safe, ethical practices throughout the process.
