Officials from the Dutch Ministry of Justice say the legislature of the Netherlands is preparing a new protocol designed to protect doctors who euthanize newborns with severe disabilities, according to Dr. Eduard Verhagen, the head of pediatrics at Groningen Hospital.
Verhagen is an outspoken advocate for killing seriously deformed babies, a procedure he admits he’s performed four times in the past 16 months.
“There is a small group of children for whom no treatment is possible for the congenital disease and malformations they are born with,” Verhagen told the London Telegraph, explaining why he had chosen to break the law. "Asking doctors to take away the pain easily and allow the child to die quietly is the natural reaction.
“For the incurable to die early requires that we do this or they enter a starvation phase and what suffering is more unbearable than a minor left to die from natural causes such as these.”
