The company behind a 3D-printed pod which can help carry out assisted suicide has said it is confident it could be used in Switzerland as early as next year.
Both assisted suicide and euthanasia, in which a doctor ends the life of somebody who wants to die, are illegal in the UK.The current method used in Switzerland is to provide the person with a series of liquids that, if ingested, will end the person's life. He told the BBC that his findings suggested the pod "did not constitute a medical device", so would not be covered by the Swiss Therapeutic Products Act.
"In the light of this established, safe and professionally conducted/supported practice, we would not imagine that a technologised capsule for a self-determined end of life will meet much acceptance or interest in Switzerland."If the machine gets the go-ahead for use in Switzerland, the pod will not be offered for sale in the conventional way.
Would it not be for hire rather than sold I'd like to think you would only use it once unless it didn't work then you would ask for a refund
Disgusting idea. Sort of thing Hitler would have wanted.
Why make it look so fancy, all you need is a tube you can seal and a handful of sleeping pills ....for that neverending sleep, but for me it's a big no thank you....
Is it just for humans?
What the hell !!! What have we become?
