After reports that organs were nearly removed from man mistakenly declared dead, organ donation programs impacted​

The 2021 case first came to light in a congressional hearing last month, with unconfirmed details in later media reports – allegations that a man who'd been declared dead days earlier woke up on the way to the operating room for organ-donation surgery and that there was initial reluctance to realize it.

After the reports from Kentucky reached France, the number joining that nation's donation refusal registry jumped from about 100 people a day to 1,000 a day in the past week, according to the French Biomedicine Agency.
