"I always wanted a genetically altered pig heart from Revivicor, what could go wrong?"

Some folks might have some reservations based on religious beliefs, especially when surprised after an operation.

Will I need to supress the urge to wallow and frolic in every mudpit I drive by during rainy season?

Genetically engineered pig hearts transplanted into dead people

Sounds like the beginning of a horror movie.

Good idea for a superhero. Get all genetic modified body parts from animals. The eyes of an eagle, the ears of a bloodhound, the claws of a bear, the fangs of a tiger, and the schlong of a horse.

NYC seems a super expensive place to do medical experiments, except for being the world epicenter for billionaires. Whole body transplants from the neck down will be popular someday, although with a billion dollar price tag.

“Revivicor”. Sounds like something out of an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie.

I was curious if the article was going to say the hearts revived the dead recipients.

No comment on this story, but I bet there’s some extreme experimentation going on in CHI-nuh. I’d hate to be an animal or slave over there.

Those hearts are great but they have a side effect in that you cannot control the urge to roll around in the mud.

When this becomes normal and accepted, I’ll be called xenotransplantationphobic.

John Wayne had a valve from a pig heart implanted in him near the end of his life. This research has been going on for decades now.

into two recently deceased people connected to ventilators,

So, they're only "mostly dead"?
