Dying COVID-19 patient undergoes double lung transplant, believed first of its kind!!!

Wow, why can't they do this operation on people with lung cancer?

A desperately ill woman with COVID-19 underwent a double lung transplant last week in Chicago, which is believed to be the first of its kind performed on a patient with the virus.

The New York Times reported Thursday that the woman, who is in her 20s and otherwise healthy, is still on a ventilator but she is showing signs of improvement. Surgeons at Northwestern Memorial Hospital described the terrible condition her lungs were in, saying they were “completely plastered to the tissue around them, the heart, the chest wall and diaphragm.”
