This swipe left and right for more articles design is terrible. It interferes with the ability to swipe in the browser to go forward and back in your history. Is this a new design trend?

> This one judged her to be eligible, but the original one, who was contacted as per protocol, objected.

> 'This MAiD practitioner expressed concerns regarding the necessity for "urgency" and shared belief for the need for more comprehensive evaluation, the seemingly drastic change in perspective of end-of-life goals, and the possibility of coercion or undue influence (i.e., due to caregiver burnout),' the report explained.

> Their request to meet Mrs B the next day was declined by the MAiD provider as 'the clinical circumstances necessitated an urgent provision'.

So basically if you want the euthanization to happen, you could shop for the right assessors to agree with you, and pay them enough. Seems broken.
