"Kidney transplantation has extremely strict regulations and procedures in terms of the overall process, kidney removal and transportation. Overall, transplanting kidneys through informal channels is not only illegal but also has a very high risk of contamination and failure." On March 25, Xiao Yongshuang, deputy chief physician of the Urology Department of Xuzhou Medical University Hospital, emphasized this in an interview with the People's Daily Health Client. Recently, the topic of "Thailand travel safety" has frequently been trending on the Internet. The popular "Thailand male model restaurant" has attracted many Internet celebrities and bloggers to check in. As these bloggers have temporarily lost contact, rumors such as "Thailand travel is bad for your kidneys", "human organ trafficking" and "human trafficking" have intensified. Official agencies such as the Tourism Authority of Thailand and the Thai Embassy in China have refuted the rumors, but from a medical perspective, this rumor is also untenable. Rumors similar to "kidney cutting" have been around for a long time. In different versions of the story, the victim is often knocked unconscious, and then a kidney is removed without anyone noticing, leaving only blood and a freshly sutured wound on the victim's body. Xiao Yongshuang pointed out that before kidney transplantation, patients need to undergo basic matching and various risk assessments to determine whether there is any incompatibility between the patient and the donor kidney. Only when the two are more similar can the success rate of transplantation be improved. This process is called "matching". Secondly, the operation needs to be performed in a sterile environment by 3-4 experienced surgeons, and requires close cooperation from anesthesia nurses. The organs removed after the operation should be stored in a sterile environment with special organ preservation fluid, ice cubes, etc. At the same time, the cold ischemia time of the removed healthy kidney organ should not exceed 24 hours in principle. This has high requirements for medical level and medical environment, and it is not easy to complete in the wild or other places. Copyright image, no permission to reprint "The whole process of kidney removal involves many steps, complicated operations and high risks, especially for the surgeons who perform the operation. It takes at least 5-10 years to train a doctor with a certain amount of experience to complete the operation." In addition, Xiao Yongshuang said that it is absolutely impossible to say that the kidney was removed without knowing it, leaving only a cut on the body. "People who have undergone kidney removal surgery will at least have obvious pain and other reactions after the operation. There is no such thing as no feeling at all," Xiao Yongshuang added. Xiao Yongshuang pointed out that the rumor reflects the current global shortage of kidney donors. Since there is a large demand for kidney transplants and a shortage of kidneys, similar rumors may arise. Latest situation: Several Internet celebrities who were reported to be "missing in Thailand" released videos to clarify In recent days, many online anchors who have "lost contact in Thailand" have also posted clarification videos: On March 21, the blogger "Mei Qi 777", who was rumored to be "lost" by netizens because he did not update for many days after posting a video of a Thai male model visiting a restaurant, posted a clarification video on his personal account, saying that he is currently in the Days Hotel in Zhongshan Park, Singapore, and is very safe. He thanked netizens for their concern. On March 22, the game anchor "Miss Han Yiying" posted a video on her personal Douyin account to report that she is safe. Another blogger who has stopped updating, "Peng Shiliu elf", also reported that he is safe in the comment section of the video he posted. In the comment, the blogger said that he is currently in China and is very safe. Thank you for your concern. Another blogger "Tianyuan Deng Gang" with 33.7 million followers also replied under the relevant video that he has been back to China for more than ten days, caught a cold after returning, and has been resting. The Thai Embassy in China issued a statement on the 23rd, saying that Thailand attaches great importance to the quality and safety of Chinese tourists. The Thai Embassy in China said that since the People's Republic of China allowed Chinese tourists to travel abroad, Thailand has been fully prepared to receive Chinese tourists and has added many communication channels for Chinese tourists, providing convenience and security for tourists to obtain information and report emergencies to the tourist police. The Thai Embassy in China also expressed that it fully understands tourists' concerns about safety issues and asks Chinese tourists to rest assured that relevant Thai agencies attach great importance to this issue and will also take corresponding measures to fully maintain and ensure the safety of tourists.
