First human heart transplant performed in 1967 Cape Town
A retrospective note recounts Dr. Christiaan Barnard's led surgery delivering the first human heart transplant to Louis Washkansky in Cape Town on December 3 1967 with the patient living 18 days after the operation. It also recalls Illinois admission as a state in 1818 and Andrew Jackson's 1828 presidential election by Electoral College. Police arrested about 800 UC Berkeley students in 1964 following a student sit in and campus confrontation.
