U.S. health officials have announced a new rule allowing individuals with HIV to receive kidney and liver transplants from donors who are also HIV-positive. This change follows research indicating that such transplants can be performed safely. The rule marks a significant shift from the previous regulations, particularly a 1987 law that prohibited organ donations between HIV-infected individuals. The initiative aims to expand opportunities for organ transplants and enhance the rights of those living with HIV, ultimately increasing the chances of saving lives.
