Over 2,000 Australians await organs; donor rates dropped to 36% after removing licence enrolment, risking 50 deaths annually.
Over 2,000 Australians await life-saving organ transplants, with 50 expected to die before receiving one, as donor registration rates have dropped to 36%, partly due to the removal of the driver’s licence enrolment system in several states.
Health experts call the move a major public health failure, urging all states to restore the simple tick-box option on licence applications to boost registrations.
They say this direct approach could increase consent rates to 60% and save 200 additional lives annually, while only 2% of hospital deaths currently occur under conditions suitable for donation.
