Euthanasia in the Netherlands--Going Up

The numbers of euthanasia deaths in the Netherlands continue to increase, and those are just those reported. Several studies have shown that about half of all euthanasia deaths in the Netherlands are not reported, even though it is legal there for doctors to euthanize patients who ask for it. Not reporting violates the law, but of course, we are talking the Netherlands here, so nothing is ever done about it.
