45. In CA, a prisoner demanded his "right" to a new heart.

He was next on the transplant list. He even took to matter to court to force the state to do the procedure.

After the transplant was successful he refused to do any of the necessary aftercare (take meds, stop smoking) to ensure the new heart had the best chance of viability

Within a year he was dead. Understandably there was a hue and cry from people waiting for a heart, as well a the families of donors. Not only did he "waste" a valuable donation, the taxpayers had to foot the bill.

I understand why doctors, nurses, and hospital administers are tired of the "vaccine hesitant" COVID patients who end up in their ICU.

Stephen Colbert put it this way: "There are two types of people -- those who are vaccinated and Republicans."
