Pachankis, Yang (2023): The Chinese Organ Business of Concern: Field Research on the Institutional Determinants of Health in PRC. Published in: Trends in Telemedicine & E-health , Vol. 4, No. 2 (9 May 2023): TTEH000584.

Abstract

The field research adopted a grounded theory approach to the criminal organ harvesting behaviors of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). With ethics reviews and case studies, the research presents the PRC conducts that do not violate the “dead donor rule” technically but still criminal in nature. With the “tribute medicine” system of PRC, the world’s public health resources can be monopolized by the Communist Party of China (CPC) in times of global needs. The systematic murders and silencing in PRC for persons’ transplantation needs in power positions can target even on underaged persons. The monetarization of organ sources and organ transplantation business by CPC-led PRC can constitute systematical crimes up to crime against humanity with its erosions to medical ethics and basic human morality.
