Animal organ and tissue transplants, into humans, a big mistake.!!?

[52ndStreet]

I see on the evening news, that a lot of people are opting for Animal organ, and tissue transplant. I think this is a big mistake. I read an article once, that states that by accepting animal organs, and or, tissue into humans for transplantation, can allow animal diseases, and viruses, into the human species.!!? I think more research needs to be done.!!? Your thoughts.!?

I would not have one. I'd rather die and go to heaven fully me.

Some people will accept transplants of animal parts, but I agree that it needs FAR more research.

Science moves ahead. The better availability of transplant organs would save many lives.

Meh, it's been a part of dental work for decades. I have a piece of cow bone holding an upper incisor in.....It's been GTG for 20 years.

I think they continue to use it in dental implant procedures.

Animal organ and tissue transplant is not safe, and may open the human species up to new viruses and diseases, or bacteria.!!??

Why would anyone want a rat attached to their ear?

Transplanting animal parts in humans is just the latest admission of the failure of the nation to properly care for its health.

That's temporary. The rodent is simply a sacrificial surrogate for the human ear. It is being grown for xenotransplantation onto a human.

Actually we have been harvesting porcine heart valves for xenotransplantation into human hearts since the 1960's. The procedure has saved many lives.

The Soul does not reside in the body -- obviously -- or even the mind -- as distinct from the brain .
Given that , I can find no good reason to refuse an animal part replacement , if ever required .
But only imho .
