Preventing the slide down the slippery slope from assisted suicide to euthanasia while protecting the rights of people with disabilities who are "not dead yet."

Article indépendant

ANNAS, George J. | KUMMER, Heidi B.

In the United States the legal line between physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia has not been breached in any of the 10 states that have adopted "Medical Aid in Dying" (also termed "physician-assisted suicide") laws.
