Euthanasia advocate Carlos Vasquez dies at 79

Carlos Vasquez, a prominent advocate for euthanasia and assisted suicide, has sadly passed away at the age of 79. Vasquez, who had been battling Parkinsonā€™s disease and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), made headlines for his unwavering commitment to promoting the right to die with dignity.

Born and raised in Spain, Vasquez became a quadriplegic after a tragic beach accident. His own experience with severe disabilities fueled his fight to be allowed access to assisted death. In March 2021, Spanish congress passed a law allowing assisted dying.
