This is why the procedure for exceptional release is in place. Once you have the basic information that this person might be at increased risk of transmitting an infectious disease based on the assessment that's put forth in the standards, if you have that possibility by reviewing the donor's chart, by interviewing the family members, you might fine-tune your evaluation of the risk status and then decide to go forward with the organ donation through the procedure of exceptional release. And that is what's being done on a daily basis, I would say.
