Chaos and Controversy Following Assisted Suicide Incident

In this episode, Philip reflects on his journey as the first doctor to administer a legal, voluntary, lethal injection and the emotional and professional challenges that followed. We discuss the ongoing Swiss federal investigation into the first use of the Sarco Pod in Schaffhausen, the role of mental health and age in assisted suicide decisions, and the broader ethical and societal implications. Expect to learn about The Peaceful Pill Handbook and its impact, the state of global assisted dying laws, and why Switzerland is at the center of this debate. This conversation is a thought-provoking exploration of human rights, autonomy, and the future of end-of-life choices.
