“New York’s health department released rules for the state’s controversial new doctor-assisted suicide law — as critics argue it’ll herald a ‘new and frightening era’ allowing government and corporations to view patients as expendable. The rules aim to set strict standards for how patients ‘self-administer’ suicide medications, including requiring two verbal requests and mandatory waiting period. … The law allows terminally ill New Yorkers with less than six months to live to make a voluntary, informed decision to request medication to end their lives via suicide.” [editor’s note: No law should be required to “allow” people to make their own decisions about whether to continue their own lives, terminally ill or not – TLK] (06/08/26)
