The title is accurate to the article but note this is actually false, the system is changing from being an opt in system to being opt out for organ donations. There are people who may for religious reasons for instance not want to donate and if you die of cancer or some viral diseases a doctor would never take the organs. So in general the title is just wrong.

Lads if I get “I opt out of organ donation” tattooed across my chest. Is my unwillingness to give my informed medical consent legally binding?
I only ask because the HSE have misplaced or lost my medical history about 9 or 10 times so far and surprisingly, I wouldn’t be confident of their competence to access my records at short notice.

I believe in my body my choice and I would prefer that people opt in to be organ donors rather than having to opt out, even in death we should be afforded some dignity and not have our organs harvested unless we explicitly consented in life
