“Is euthanasia a big scam?” – Switzerland offers euthanasia services to patients who are said to just lie down to commit suicide
“Is euthanasia a big scam?” the euthanasia service offered by Switzerland, the patient is said to just lie in the suicide cabin and press a button to die painlessly.

Trouble readers to tap the upper right corner of the "attention", leave your wonderful comment with everyone to explore, thank you for your strong support!

But under the light ring of medical progress, there is a group of dementia patients, they are tortured by illness and death, the hope for life is gradually wiped out, at this time, the theme of euthanasia has gradually entered the public perspective, which has triggered countless discussions and controversies, among which "euthanasia is a huge scam" is more booming.

A "suicide cabin" made by 3D printing technology has appeared in Switzerland. This new thing is like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples. Users enter this special cabin and press a button to start the process of ending their lives.

The device passed legal scrutiny and, from the perspective of its supporters, provided a pathway to an independent, painless and dignified death for those suffering from dementia, just as it opened a window of liberation for those struggling in the dark.

But for opponents, there is a big problem with this simple euthanasia method of operation. It can cause people to unconsciously depreciate the preciousness of life, making psychically more vulnerable people to make irreversible decisions under impulses. After all, life is extremely precious and cannot be easily given up because of the pain of a moment.

The "nitrogen death capsule", developed by Australian doctors and Dutch designers, has also appeared.This capsule-like device is filled with a sense of technology, and its design fully considers the autonomy of the user.

Before using, users need to fill out an online questionnaire and only after passing can get a valid security code within 24 hours, which gives users enough time to think carefully.

There are two modes in the cabin: transparent and dark. In the transparent mode, the user seems to be able to leave in the beautiful natural environment imagined; Dark mode creates a quiet and private space.

After pressing the button, the nitrogen is injected into the cabin, the oxygen concentration rapidly decreases, the user will feel slight dizziness or excitement, and then die without pain within five to ten minutes. This device is easy to carry, and the user's body can also be buried directly as a coffin, costing approximately four thousand to eight thousand dollars.

Euthanasia, simply put, means that professional medical staff end the lives of patients who suffer from incurable diseases and suffer great pain in a humane way on the premise that the patients themselves clearly express their wishes.

The entire process requires strict compliance with legal provisions and a layer review. According to the implementation method, euthanasia is divided into two types of active and passive. Active euthanasia is to accelerate the death process by means of injection drugs, and passive euthanasia is to stop active treatment, providing only the basic means of maintenance, so that the disease develops naturally.

At present, the majority of countries recognize passive euthanasia, but active euthanasia is only permitted in very few countries. In China, the path to legalization of euthanasia is full of difficulties. As early as 1988, there were experts in the National Assembly to propose legislation, but ultimately failed to pass.

Until now, although there are more and more voices in support of euthanasia legislation, there are still few opponents. Opponents believe that euthanasia and the responsibilities of healthcare personnel to save death and wounds are at odds, and it is difficult in reality to guarantee that the will of the patient is genuinely voluntary, especially in some families with poor economic conditions, where patients may choose to end their lives without delaying their families.

And medical technology is constantly advancing, and there may be ways to cure diseases that can not be cured now in the future.In addition, if euthanasia is legalized, it can also be used by other people with a useful mind to become a means of crime.

Recently, there has been an opinion that "euthanasia is a huge scam", arguing that the Swiss euthanasia service is not as painless and peaceful as the propaganda, and there are reports that some of the bodies of those who chose this way of dying appeared suspicious traces, which makes people doubt whether their death process is really as peaceful as described.

However, no authoritative media reports are currently available and no new authoritative findings will appear in 2024 to confirm this claim.Switzerland’s euthanasia services have strict legal procedures and regulatory mechanisms.

Taking the data of 2023 as an example, the vast majority of patients applying for euthanasia have undergone multiple rounds of rigorous evaluation, including psychological evaluation and disease diagnosis, so as to ensure that patients make decisions in a fully awake and voluntary state. And in the process of euthanasia, professional medical staff were present and the operation procedure was strictly followed.

The attitudes toward euthanasia vary greatly from country to region, depending on cultural, legal and ethical concepts.Some U.S. states have relevant regulations on euthanasia, such as the Oregon Dignity Death Act in 1997, which allows people with euthanasia to choose to die if they meet certain conditions.

The bill has been implemented for years, and data show that most patients who apply for euthanasia have made decisions based on reasonable judgments about their own condition and future quality of life after adequate medical assessment and psychological counseling.

The Netherlands and Belgium were the earliest countries to legalize euthanasia, and since the legalization of euthanasia in the Netherlands in 2002, the government has stepped up regulation, requiring doctors to strictly follow procedures to ensure that the will of the patient is respected and is only implemented when the patient bears insurmountable pain.

Euthanasia is a difficult choice on the edge of life and death, which involves many aspects such as life, ethics and law.

When we discuss this subject, we should look at it objectively and rationally, respect every life, and understand the needs of patients who struggle in extreme suffering.

At the same time as we pursue scientific and technological progress and legal improvement, we should pay more attention to humanitarian care, strive to provide better care and protection for every life, and let life flourish in dignity and care.
