Alex Osiadacz | (TNS) Mayo Clinic News NetworkAugust is National Minority Donor Awareness Month. It’s a time of celebrating organ donation and educating people about transplantation by encouraging donor registration and promoting healthy living.Dr. Shennen Mao, a Mayo Clinic transplant surgeon, says having a diverse pool of organ donors will help serve a growing wait list of those in need.In the U.S., 17 people die every day while waiting for an organ transplant.Nearly 60% of people on transplant waiting lists come from minority communities, while about 30% of donors are people of color.“Blood types and certain HLA, or antibodies, tend to correlate with various ethnic groups,” says Dr. Mao. “So it is not directly related to a particular minority group; however, organs will end up with someone of a similar background because the better matched an organ is, the more longevity that organ has.”Higher rates of heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes ...Russian Wagner warlord Yevgeny Prigozhin on passenger list of jet that crashed

Manager Brandon Hyde is expected to address it during his pregame media session Wednesday evening.Baltimore acquired Flaherty from the St. Louis Cardinals on the cusp of the MLB trade deadline for three top 20 prospects. In three starts with the Orioles, the 27-year-old pending free agent has a 7.07 ERA, though that’s bloated by a three-inning, seven-run outing against the San Diego Padres on Aug. 15, his most recent start. Left-hander Drew Rom, one of the three prospects Baltimore parted with for Flaherty, allowed eight runs (six earned) in 3 2/3 innings in his MLB debut as the Cardinals’ starter Monday.The Orioles have of late used a six-man rotation, giving young start...Astros’ Justin Verlander tells Red Sox manager Alex Cora to ‘f–k off’
