In America, the Schiavo case has been dominating the news media for almost the past two weeks. There is much discussion here about the fairness of the legal process, the powers and responsibilities of the Congress, President and the Governor of Florida, the issue of who is a more reliable surrogate, what diagnosis is the most correct, what does removing food and fluid signify (removing comfort care or removing an unwanted medical treatment), is a body forever without awareness something to preserve at all monetary, legal and ethical costs.. and so on and so on.
Most interesting for me and perhaps others here would be for my visitors coming to this blog from outside America to comment on what impact this case is having, if any, on the news media of their countries and what are the folks on the street or in their homes discussing, if at all, about the Schiavo case. Let us know about your observations. ..Maurice.
