Re: A Duty To Die?
Surely a simple '5 majority' rule would prevent spurious usage.
5 doctors each have to give a report on the patient's condition, if a majority agree that the condition is
1) Permanent
2) Causing distress TO THE PATIENT
3) No treatment possible for the long term alleviation of the symptoms
Then the termination may go ahead, if the above criteria can not be met then there is no justification, if less than 3 doctors agree, then there can be no justification.
Simple enough
