We had to show that certain people with HIV could be healthy enough to be a kidney donor and to live with only one kidney.

This is an unbelievably exciting day for our hospital and our team, but more importantly for patients living with HIV and end-stage organ disease, for these individuals, this means a new chance at life.

Organ transplantation is actually even more important for patients with HIV, since they die on the waiting list even faster than their HIV-negative counterparts, we are very thankful to ... use organs from HIV-positive patients to save lives, instead of throwing them away, as we had to do for so many years.

Paired organ donation?: Just do it.

Knowing that I had the antibody response that I had meant that my son could go to in-person school. That's huge.
