Canada is a fucked up place
The transplant didn't go into the trash. The need for transplants far exceeds the supply, so they go to the people with higher likelihood of survival.
"Woman who refuses to listen to medical professionals advice denied transplant. Transplant instead went to person who listens to their doctor."
You give the organ to the best chance of survival. That's the person with the covid vaccine.
This is someone who has literally chosen to die, or is so used to controlling others, that it never occurred to them that they won't get what they want
Freedom works both ways. She has the right to refuse the vaccine, the transplant board has the right to deny her a transplant
Says the corporate conservative fox news watching bootlicker.
