La posición de la organización o su explicación posterior: JW.org califica actualmente de mito la afirmación de que los Testigos, incluidos los niños, mueren cada año por rechazar la sangre, y añade que ‘no one can say for certain that a patient will die because of refusing blood or will live because of accepting it’.

Awake!, “Youths Who Put God First (contents page)”

22 de mayo de 1994 · p.2 · Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York, Inc.

“In former times thousands of youths died for putting God first. They are still doing it, only today the drama is played out in hospitals and courtrooms, with blood transfusions the issue.”

The contents page introduces the series ‘Youths Who Put God First’ on pages 3–15. It does not name or count the young people pictured on the cover.

Notes. The cover (a montage of photographs of young people beneath the title) is not reproduced on the Online Library; a low-resolution scan hosted by a discovery site was viewed but the number of people pictured could not be reliably counted from it.
