Interesting. However, although I haven't analised the figures I wonder about how the results would change if people were EASILY able to choose to voluntarily end their lives? Many years ago I knew a lady who ran a a rest home (God's waiting room) where the "guests" almost were zombies. These people had to be washed, dressed, spoon-fed and would then just sit all day in a "living" room, staring in to space, dribbling all over themselves, regularly soiling their pants, and just waiting to die. Visitors? In many cases the only time these people got visitors was at Christmas time, when the place was packed. Some, very few, still had their marbles, but in conversation they invariably said that all they wanted was to die. Surely these people should be allowed to make this choice without do-gooders stucking their noses in where they're neither wanted nor needed? The thing that I most enjoyed about visiting this rest home was the many 'friendly' nurses, but that's another story! |

Me: How many people die in Australian hospitals each year as a result of procedural errors? Copilot (Microsoft AI) It's estimated that around 18,000 people die each year in Australian hospitals due to medical errors. These errors can include procedural mistakes, misdiagnoses, and other preventable adverse events. Reference: Medical mistakes: a silent epidemic in Australian hospitals (10 Jun 2013):
