@DrSarahJarvis @BBCTheOneShow Would a donor be considered if they died from Corvus-19? Iโ€™m assuming not for lungs but other organs?

@chipginga @BBCTheOneShow I'm afraid not - risk of infection far too high for organ recipients, who have to take meds to suppress their immune systems

@DrSarahJarvis @BBCTheOneShow Already opted in and told family. After all what use will my vital organs be to me once I have passed?

@DrSarahJarvis @BBCTheOneShow People can only benefit from this, as a recipient of a donated organ I know just what this will mean to so many. Great news for all....

@DrSarahJarvis @BBCTheOneShow Would you know what the situation is for donations from those with ME please ? Are they deemed as ok, or is it up to individuals to come off the register to save any potential issues ? Thanks.

@DrSarahJarvis @BBCTheOneShow Had my donor card, and I am on the register, for over 40 years and family know my wishes. I do not agree that they could (they wonโ€™t) over rule my wishes upon my death. The law must change, so that if you are on the register, Drs must respect your decision and not relatives.

@DrSarahJarvis @BBCTheOneShow Please discuss and donate. You don't need your organs after you die. My late Mum always regretted no one asking her for my late brother's organs. So the effects of not being able to donate lasted until she went to her grave, and in part why I wrote this -
