Doctors didn't give an exact cause of death.

The medical center said the transplanted heart performed well for several weeks without any sign of rejection.So it worked for 8 weeks.

“had received a transplant on January 7”
Did they require he have had the covid shot before he could get the transplant I wonder???
That’s a legit question BTW.

“the pig heart was the only available option”
Do know how I feel about this. Remdesivir and ventilators were the only options to treat covid.

This is sad. I am very anxious to see what finally got him (the cause).
There are some big bucks and smart people working on xenotransplantation. Time will tell, but we’ve come a long way in the process and my guess is that if it was a rejection or some malfunction of the heart that this problem will be solved and the procedure will be as common as human-to-human transplants in the years ahead.
As a kidney failure patient, this is something I know a little about.

He lasted longer than the first human heart transplant in 1967.
