Man orders Kindle, gets tumour instead

bbc.co.uk/news/uk-35277806

A man who ordered a Kindle electronic book reader received a patient’s tumour sample instead, in a courier delivery mix-up.
James Potten said when he opened the FedEx package the box was marked as “patient tumor - specimen enclosed”.
The package has now been delivered to the intended recipient, the Royal Free Hospital in London

Surely they can’t be sending human tissue via courier networks?

Blame Royal Mail, they get paid way to much anyway :stuck_out_tongue:

Do you think sending it via the pallet networks would be better? :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing:

Dread to think what he would have received had he ordered a full set of encyclopedias :open_mouth:
