Zhao Gong min, member of the committee, said that in the
theoretical circle, some believe that ethical principles can
support euthanasia:
1. Euthanasia is beneficial to the
best interests of patients.
2. The principle of autonomy is to
respect the right of dying
patients to choose the way of
death.
3. It is unfair to spend too much
limited resources on terminally
ill patients so that others
cannot receive the treatment.
The process promises to be long and contentious.

You can't be too cautious when it comes to life and

death.
 

We need to be careful
when it comes to life and death
