Sarco: First Swiss Use - What Actually Happened
Breaking his silence, this week Exit Director and Sarco Creator, Dr Philip Nitschke, has spoken out about the first use of the Sarco, how the device operated exactly as planned, and the dirty politics which have since come into play.
After 12 years of production and planning the Sarco was finally used in Switzerland on 23 September 2024 by a seriously ill American woman. She entered the Sarco unassisted, pressed the button unassisted, lost consciousness in < 2min, with death occurring at around 7 minutes. The police were notified of the death half an hour after she entered the device.
While the Sarco worked precisely as expected, the aftermath of its first use has been controversial and the event surrounded by misinformation and fake news.
To listen to Philip discuss the first use of the Sarco is to be better informed about the true events that took place, and why Sarco offers an accessible, drug-free option for those seeking a peaceful and reliable death.
