; data from China also indicates 5,818 organ donors and 19,454 transplants in 2019, resulting in a ratio of actual donors to registered donors of 0.0057. Although this comparison does not control for other possible variables, the fact that China’s nascent organ donation program yielded 44 times more organ donors from its organ donation pool than that of the United States in 2019 merits international scrutiny. (14) Credible evidence suggests that Falun Gong practitioners are subject to widespread forced organ harvesting and are specifically targeted for this barbaric practice. (15) In January of 2007, Canadian human rights attorney David Matas and former Canadian Secretary of State for the Asia Pacific region David Kilgour published findings confirming the likelihood that forced organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners was occurring in China. They also concluded that there was no evidence of a voluntary donation system in the PRC at the time and that, in spite of this, the Chinese Government reported a dramatic escalation in its organ transplantation infrastructure (a three-fold increase) between 1999 and 2004, parallel to the onset of the persecution of Falun Gong. (16) In 2016, Matas, Kilgour, and investigative journalist Ethan Gutmann published an exhaustive report concluding that it is likely that between 60,000 and 100,000 organ transplants had been conducted per year since 2000, and that Falun Gong practitioners are the main source of organs for transplant in China. (17) In its annual report for 2020, the Congressional-Executive Commission on China referenced reports raising concerns about the PRC falsifying organ donation data, casting additional doubt on the CCP’s claim to have ended forced organ harvesting.
