Original Note:
Organs are not harvested while a donor is still alive in the sense of being conscious or having brain function. Organ donation typically occurs after a donor has been declared brain dead. Brain death is a legal and medically definitive death. https://www.life-source.org/partners/hospitals/brain-death https://www.donors1.org/learn-about-organ-donation/how-does-organ-and-tissue-donation-work/understanding-brain-death/
