Medical Assistance in Dying vs. Death Under Medical Procedures | Donald Stern

Are we on the verge of legalizing state-sanctioned death? In this urgent and eye-opening episode, Donald Stern — physician, advocate, and member of the Virginia Alliance Against Assisted Suicide — exposes the growing push to legalize physician-assisted suicide under the deceptive label of “medical aid in dying.”
Stern reveals how proposed legislation in Virginia aims to remove malpractice protections and legalize doctors killing their patients, fundamentally transforming medicine’s purpose from healing to ending life. Drawing on decades of medical ethics and historical lessons, he warns that this shift could open the door to coercion, abuse, and even government misuse against the elderly, disabled, and vulnerable.

In this powerful talk, you’ll learn:

⚠️ How a new Virginia bill would force hospitals and care facilities to offer assisted suicide as a “treatment option”

🏥 Why the Hippocratic Oath — “First, do no harm” — is at risk of being abandoned

🧬 How vulnerable patients could be subtly coerced into choosing death to save money or “spare” their families

🩺 Why physician-assisted suicide distorts the doctor-patient relationship and erodes public trust in medicine

🏛️ How this dangerous policy could pave the way for euthanasia, organ harvesting incentives, and insurer-driven end-of-life decisions

💊 The truth about “existential pain” — and why most people who seek assisted suicide are not in physical agony

Stern also outlines how citizens can fight back, from joining the movement at NoSuicideVA.org to pressuring lawmakers and medical associations to oppose this legislation. His message is clear: life is not a burden — it’s a blessing, and medicine must never become a tool for death.
