Question

Will doctors still try to save someone’s life if they know they are a donor?

Answer

A doctor who is trying to save someone’s life in hospital has no way of knowing that they are an organ donor. Organ donation is considered only after all life-saving efforts have been used and it is certain that a person will not survive.
