Medical aid in dying is spreading in the US
Medical aid in dying is a medical-care market increasingly legalized in the US—about 12 or 13 states, with New York set to allow it around August—under restrictive conditions, while some other countries are less restrictive, prompting travel such as Daniel Kahneman's choice to end his life in Switzerland; strong opposition from the Catholic Church and from justices like Gorsuch and Barrett makes a future Supreme Court challenge likely.
