UK Debates Assisted Dying Amidst Tragic Spanish Case

A 25-year-old woman, Noelia Castillo, who suffered severe trauma, was granted an assisted death after an 18-month legal battle. Healthcare law expert Dr. Alexandra Mullik describes the UK bill as cautious, with strong safeguards, while acknowledging concerns about coercion.
