Magesh probes the issue of organ transplantation: aren’t the ‘brain’ dead going to suffer if they’re clubbed together with the ‘dead’ dead?

A chennai doctor has opined that sensitizing the public on cadaver transplantation for organs like kidney would greatly address the large imbalance in the demand and supply(Ah..well, thats the kind of language they speak) of kidney for the patients requiring transplantation. This is not just his personal opinion but a view shared by many. He also adds that such an initiative has paid off in the case of eye donations. I think there is a distinct difference between the two scenarios which relates to the issue of “brain” dead and the “real dead” dead, and this difference is what makes this suggestion extremely scary to me.
