David Goodall, Australia’s oldest scientist at 104 years old, has arrived in Switzerland where he plans to end his life with a voluntary assisted dying program.
He has expressed his frustration over Australian legislation and told an ABC broadcaster he is resentful that he has to go abroad to die as Australia does not allow voluntary euthanasia.
Switzerland is one of the world’s most permissive countries in regards to assisted suicide.
