The court overruled the person’s right to refuse the transfusion. There’s a bit of legal burden on a party that wants to do things to your body that you told them not to do.

Ah there it is. The article wasn't super clear on that, and I'm not paying close enough attention. "Can" vs. "will, if necessary".
