> The time is almost up when a report is brought to you that a young man who has just come into your clinic for his yearly check-up has exactly the right blood-type, and is in excellent health.

Ignoring the <huge>huge</huge> moral part:

* transplant matching is not so easy, it's not only blood-type that is like a 2^3 classification but a 2^10 or 2^20 classification. Getting 5 people that would day today exactly here is too unrealistic.

* after transplants the live expectancy is lower than a not transplanted person, so you must compare the expected 60 years of the victim with the expected years of the people getting the organs.
