You can already opt out today if you are sick and have made a “treatment will”. Why would anyone opt out? One reason is that after a cardiac arrest, there is a chance you will be revived as a “vegetable” – some people don’t want to go through that. How? You will be able to opt out on sundhed.dk – you can also change your mind later.
- The association “Hjerteforeningen” is asking for an information campaign about the risks of cardiac arrest so that people don’t rush into opting-out due to an unfounded fear of being revived as a “vegetable”.
