Let
us put aside discussions already abundantly present to deal with the
real problem of transplants, which consists in the scarce propensity
of Italians to donate organs. What are the subconscious reasons? Up
to now they have not been looked into in a serene and objective manner,
but most times using the usual clichés: culture. etc. In our opinion,
from this refusal to donate organs on the part of Italians emerges an
important fact, basically their lack of confidence in those who work
in the health sector, which is nurtured, day be day, by articles, programmes,
surveys published by the media, which translate into the slogan “malasanità”
(“bad healthcare”). And how can one fail to have doubts, when dozens
and dozens of doctors are continually accused of incompetence, dereliction
of duty, superficiality, not to mention the scandal in which children
are involved, seemingly used to supply spare organs and that, it is
said, pass also through our country. The fear of getting involved in
this particular “business” cannot be ignored, just as it is impossible
to ignore the provisions to be made. We do not need debates or round-table
conferences, but it is absolutely necessary to organise as soon as possible
a campaign of moral re-education in order to bring back into the medical
sector the true values of professional ethical practice, the only possible
antidote which would ward off fear, win back confidence and give the
Italians the pleasure of being generous even after death.

To
keep up to date, to obtain information, a new and unique “vortal” in
the health sector, Sanitade.com, in which 97 countries are present,
with about 420,000 on-line links. One of your medical colleagues has
defined it as “a vortal not for surfing, but for working”. This service
has been set up thanks to 20 years’ experience acquired in the field
of scientific activity. Therefore our appointment is for 31 May, the
day Sanitade.com will be on line.
