This article is new enough and long enough. I have added ALT1. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done (Hooray!). Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:41, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you @Cwmhiraeth:. Wish to clarify 6 chimpanzees, 6 people, both kidneys transplanted. I've made it clear in article and followed the fact with inline citation. transplanted both kidneys from six chimpanzees into six patients...of whom one survived ninety months[1] Whispyhistory (talk) 07:04, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
- Clarified as multiple sources differ. This 23-year-old school teacher was admitted in November, 1963 with chronic glomerulonephritis and progressive uremia........On January 13,1964 she received a renal heterotransplant.[2] Whispyhistory (talk) 19:17, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
