Thank goodness the number of executions in China is starting to go down, but the problem is that as the executions go down—and they have to be done within seven days, as David mentioned—the demand for organs from prisoners of conscience who have no hearing, no appeal, nothing—
The way it works, as I'm sure a lot of you know, is that if David needs an organ, he goes to Shanghai and pays a lot of money for an organ at People's No. 1 Hospital. They then do the blood test and tissue tests and find a match for him out in one of these work camps. The person who unluckily happens to be a match for David Matas is taken in. Their liver is taken out and is flown to Shanghai in a People's Liberation Army aircraft, and he is told he's getting a liver from a murderer or something, they would probably say.
One of the reasons the Falun Gong are so sought after is that they don't smoke or drink. They often tend to be very healthy people.
