DJ Ferguson's family told CBS Boston that he is in desperate need of a transplant, and he was at the front of the line. According to Brigham and Women’s Hospital policy, patients who are not vaccinated against COVID are ineligible for an organ transplant.
Ferguson, a father of two with another on the way, remains at the Boston hospital as his family determines what to do next.
"We are aggressively pursuing all options, but we are running out of time," David Ferguson, DJ's father, told CBS Boston. "My son has gone to the edge of death to stick to his guns and he’s been pushed to the limit."
