Today the Euthanasia Law will be voted on in the Spanish Congress of Deputies as the only point on the agenda In a true obsession with death, our leaders, in the midst of a pandemic wave caused by COVID with thousands of deaths, their proposal to citizens is to pass a law to eliminate the elderly, the sick and the disabled. It is precisely being voted in the Congress of Deputies at the same time. We cannot be silent in the face of this drift of our leaders whose objective is not to put the means available to the State at the service of those most in need, but rather to eliminate them under the fallacy of a supposed dignity. WE HAVE ALL DIGNITY, EVERY LIFE MATTERS! It is unacceptable from a medical, moral, sociological and legal point of view to decide on the life or death of a person. Human suffering cannot be addressed by eliminating the sufferer, this is an individual and collective failure and a humiliation to the noble practice of medicine. Medicine today has palliative care that should prevail in an advanced society. Only in barbarism are mechanisms of elimination and not of cure established. We must denounce this law for what it is: an act that threatens society in general and generates distrust in our healthcare system.
