💨 Abstract

The Isle of Man has passed a bill to legalize assisted dying for terminally ill residents with a prognosis of 12 months or less and a settled intention to die. This follows a similar step by British MPs in England and Wales four months ago. Assisted dying is already legal in several countries worldwide, with Switzerland being the first to introduce the practice in 1942.
