I think that's what Jeff is going for, but it's not how it works, multiple transplants puts you at higher risk of rejection, at least when you have a second of the same type of transplant.

And they aren't really supporting two set of DNA, they have to take medication to prevent your body from rejecting the foreign DNA.

The only way it makes sense is if they're picking transplant patients because they're already on antirejection medication, in the hope that that will help them accept the added DNA strains.
