Note sull'episodio
On March 20th, 2026, the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses announced that storing and reinfusing your own blood before surgery is no longer prohibited. Governing Body member Gerrit Lösch called it a personal decision.
Meanwhile, in South Africa, a teenage boy is still waiting for a liver transplant his doctors say he needs to survive. His family are Jehovah's Witnesses. The blood transfusion the surgery requires comes from a donor. And donor blood is still absolutely prohibited — unchanged by anything the Governing Body announced this month.
He has been waiting for months.
