Spent a bit of time in the medical world back in the day.
A lot of time was spent in emergency rooms.
My drivers license does not have the organ donor box checked.
They try harder that way.
Linky no worky
Saving for later
When I was last in a hospital (which does not happen very often), they worked hard to get me into rehab so that they could free up the bed!
The hard part was getting out of rehab (with extensive physical and occupational therapy).
No, I am not signed up as an organ donor.

The wife spent a little time in hospitals the past couple of years.
The guy on X talks about hospitals trying to force vaccines on everybody, not a single person suggested that to my wife.
The guy talks about trying to force antacids, PPIs, etc on patients. Nobody tried to force those on my wife, nobody even suggested it.
I guess if you live in some hellhole, there may be medical staff trying to legally kill you. However, we’ve had a lot of dedicated nurses, doctors, PAs, etc that were wonderful people and concerned with helping their patients. Not saying their can’t be accidents or negligence, but in my experiences that’s not the rule at all.
The second one. PPIs well guess what half the elderly patients are already on a PPI when the arrive at the hospital. A good percentage of the rest are going to be asking for something for heartburn at some point during their stay. Lastly the hospital doesn't prescribe a PPI to you a doctor that sees you in the hospital does. Now that Doctor may prescribe a PPI or Maalox or an H2 blocker on an as needed basis. But that only gets given if the PATIENT requests something for heartburn or indigestion.
