Rachel Aviv’s “What Does It Mean to Die?” in the New Yorker magazine gave a very detailed and chronological account of the legal, ethical, and social value issues around Jahi McMath’s brain death case. The author cited the 1981 Uniform Determination of Death Act, which says that someone who has sustained the “irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including the brain stem, is dead.” California law requires that hospitals permit “a reasonably brief period of accommodation” before disconnecting a ventilator — long enough to allow family to gather, but not so long that hospitals neglect the “needs of other patients and prospective patients in urgent need of care.” Aviv affirms brain death as the threshold and calls for the end of the death debate.
