What is the legality of euthansia?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Mostly not legal: A few states like oregon have extensive protocols to allow assisted suicide for patients meeting the proper medical and psychological conditions. In most states, euthanasia is illegal. A few countries have euthanasia pathways such as the netherlands.
