We know doctors will euthanise disabled people without consent and will proudly admit to it. In 2013, of patients who died that year in Flanders, Belgian doctors reported hastening the deaths of 1.7% of them (1,048) without a request for #euthanasia: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmc1414527

Similarly, studies from August to December of 1990 showed doctors performed euthanasia without request on .8 to 1.6% of all 7000 patients who died in the #Netherlands in that time, before it was legal.

Legalisation of euthanasia is not necessary for doctors to deny treatment to disabled people. In 2014, in the #UK, the #UKHighCourt granted a petition by #NancyFitzmaurice ’s mother to allow the hospital to withhold fluids, killing her by dehydration: https://autisticadvocacy.org/2014/10/asan-statement-on-the-killing-of-nancy-fitzmaurice/

It was the first time the British legal system allowed a child breathing on her own, not on life support and not diagnosed with any terminal illness, to be killed by the medical system.

In the #UnitedStates, the “futility laws” allow hospitals in #California, #Texas, and #Virginia to refuse treatment, nutrition, and hydration to a patient if they decide that care for a patient is “futile.” https://khn.org/news/texas-law-highlights-dilemma-over-care-for-patients-with-no-hope-of-survival/
