The Transplantation Act wants to introduce the extended opt-out solution for organ donation. If you don't want to donate your organs, keep this in mind.
In favour
Around 1,450 people in Switzerland are waiting for an organ donation. One to two people die every week because they don't receive a suitable organ donation. The new solution has a positive impact on the donation rate and saves lives.
Against
Every medical intervention requires a conscious and clear yes. It is wrong to say that this explicit yes should no longer be required for organ donation, that it is sufficient not to say no. Organ donation is only ethically justifiable if the person gave their consent during their lifetime.
