The number of requests for euthanasia made to a special
clinic for people whose doctors won’t help them die is rising fast. The organization is looking for an additional
50 staff members. The director said that
the rise in the number of requests for euthanasia is due to the fact that more
people want to choose how they die. The
taboo is disappearing. Amsterdam Free
University researcher, Bregje Onwuteaka-Philipsen, said that requests for euthanasia
rose from 13,000 in 2011 to 18,000 in 2016.
