Stanford Heart Transplant Deaths and Houston Patients Progress

A California carpenter's heart failed at Stanford last Sunday while surgeons in Houston reported their second transplant in three days. Four recipients remain alive, with two in Houston and one each in Britain and South Africa. The Houston team, led by Dr. Denton Cooley, also performed another transplant Friday, giving Evertt Thomas a heart from a 15-year-old death by suicide. The events sparked ethical debate in Britain and prompted NAS discussions in Washington on transplant therapy.

He urged Congress to act even in an election year to “bite the bullet” for the country.

A PBS commissioned sampling of 500 Indiana Democratic voters shows Kennedy favored at 27.4 percent, Branigin 23.3 percent, McCarthy 15.5 percent with 30 percent undecided. crossovers from Republicans favor McCarthy 43 percent, Branigin 29, Kennedy 27. The undecided vote indicates volatility and uncertainty about Tuesday's result.
