Organs Transplanted From Overweight Donors Increase Risks For Recipients

Fatosity so virulent it metastasizes from one person to another.
Obesity is a worldwide health problem. According to estimations from a 2008 World Health Organization (WHO) report, 1.4 billion adults were overweight, including 200 million men and 300 million women classified as obese. A 2010 WHO report also states that over 40 million children under the age of five were overweight. Experts say that the rate of children rates of being overweight and obesity have increased amongst children and now exceed 30% in the U.S. A study published in the August edition of Liver Transplantation has revealed that children who have a liver transplantation are at greater risk of graft loss and death from adult organ donors who are severely obese.
Nutritional child abuse at a distance. Kudos, fatsos.
