A health official in Kuwait said that the country had moved forward in organ donation awareness, but insisted that more was needed.
“Kuwait has relatively high rates of organ donation when compared with other Middle Eastern countries,” Dr Mustafa Al Mousawi, the head of the Ministry of Health’s (MoH) Organ Procurement Unit, said.
“However, it is still behind the US and Europe in this area. We have a slightly higher rate in Kuwait because we have been organising ourselves since 1996. We started a course, with the help of Eurotransplant, which made a great deal of difference, but there’s still a lot of work to be done,” he said, quoted by Kuwait Times.
