Organ donation in the UK drops due to the corona virus pandemic and shortage of BAME donors.

One of the many knock downs due to the corona virus pandemic in the UK has been the drop-in organ donations. 50-year-old Bally Sandhu is desperately in need of a kidney and is currently having ten hours of dialysis every night. And as BBC’s South Asia Diaspora Reporter Gaggan Sabherwal has been finding out, Black and Asian people like Bally even before the corona virus outbreak have had to wait on average, a year longer than white people for a transplant because of the shortage of donors from these ethnic backgrounds.
