Four countries in the world allow organ donation (harvest) after euthanasia for psychiatric conditions such as chronic depression, tinnitus, or other psychiatric conditions. These countries are Canada, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Spain. These also allow “euthanasia at home” followed by organ harvest at a hospital.
This process is called ODEH (Organ Donation after Euthanasia at Home) and works as follows. It does NOT mean you are euthanized at home:
you are premedicated and sedated at home, i.e., you are NOT killed
you are transported (alive but incapacitated) to the hospital
your euthanasia is now “completed” by invoking circulatory death
circulatory death means: they stop your heart for 5 minutes
you are declared legally dead i.e. “brain dead” because blood is no longer flowing to your brain
your still healthy and living organs and tissue are now removed: liver, kidneys, lungs, heart, pancreas and facial tissue
now you die definitively because you no longer have organs
According to Grok, “As of the end of 2021, 286 ODE [organ donation after euthanasia] procedures had been performed across the four countries, yielding 1 131 organs transplanted to 837 recipients.” Most cases took place in Canada.
This isn’t made up “disinformation” or “misinformation”. It is documented by scientific reports on the practice:
