Kenny MacAskill: Life and death decisions, such as Alfie Evans, must be made by clinicians

THE Alfie Evans case is a tragedy for all involved. That a life so young should be subject to such devastating ill health is heart-breaking and for parents to watch a child suffer must be excruciating. But it can’t be easy either for clinicians and staff at Alder Hey Hospital, who are now subjected to abuse and even threats. Sadly, some zealots have been characterising them as the perpetrators of his early passing, which is truly shameful. . http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/16188002.Kenny_MacAskill__Life_and_death_decisions__such_as_Alfie_Evans__must_be_made_by_clinicians/?ref=rss
