Proving just how much British healthcare is hell bent on killing the young, British doctors and courts are refusing to allow young Alfie Evans to be moved to an Italian hospital that has already agreed to provide long term care, all this despite the source of the problem haven’t being ascertained yet.
The British want this child dead, and so dead he shall be.
Wesley J. Smith, over at the National Review, notes this does not meet the criteria for what we were promised to be euthanasia, either active or passive:
-
Alfie has not been diagnosed;
-
The baby is not terminally ill in the sense that Charlie Gard was, but in a coma;
-
The family has found another hospital willing to continue care, or at least continue to seek a diagnosis;
-
If Alfie is unconscious, he is not suffering;
-
The hospital, in essence, wants a court to declare that dying now is better than being severely cognitively disabled for an indeterminate period.
-
By resisting the transfer, the hospital administration and doctors are essentially declaring that they do not want the child to have any chance of surviving.
