Organ Transplants in Jewish Law
with Rabbi Yehuda Pink MSc
On 20th May 2020, 'Max and Keira's Law' will go into affect and all adults in England will be considered to have agreed to donate their organs after death unless specifically opting out.
What does this mean for Jewish people?
How does this law affect the Jewish community? What is the Jewish view on organ transplants?
Does Jewish law allow the donation of organs, either from a live donor or one who is deceased?
Should Jewish law actively encourage or even morally compel one to donate?
Wednesday 13th May, 8.30pm on Zoom
