Two more stories of unvaxed people being removed from transplant lists, one a young man who needs a heart even though other countries have recommended against the vaccine for young, healthy males due to risk of myocarditis or pericarditis.
Shamgar Connors, 42, is a husband and father of two.
He and his wife, a nurse, decided against taking the COVID-19 vaccine after the entire family suffered through the disease last year.
However, a doctor at University of Virginia (UVA) Hospital allegedly told him that despite his prior COVID-19 infection, his unvaccinated status will not allow him an "active" spot on the list for a life-saving kidney transplant.
"Art said you're not interested in the COVID vaccine," UVA Hospital's Dr. Karen Warburton said to Connors, according to a recording of the call obtained by Fox News Digital.
"So, it is a requirement for you to be active."
