Update news Organ donations
Teachers and students of a high school in the southern province of Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province have pledged to donate organs posthumously to save people and for scientific purposes.
A conference on organ donation registration and the prevention of human organ and tissue trafficking was held on Monday.
Demand for body organs for life-saving transplants in Vietnam is high but supplies are low. This is because hundreds of people with terminal ailments - or their relatives - refuse to agree to donate vital body parts, such as heart, kidneys or liver.
