A demonstration is planned in Lyon on Monday, May 12, against the end-of-life bill.

Representatives of the Alliance VITA association, which campaigns against the right to abortion and euthanasia, are calling for demonstrations across France this Monday, in some fifty cities. A rally is planned in Lyon, starting at 7 p.m., at Place Bellecour.
"While the French are experiencing a daily crisis in the healthcare system and access to care, how can we understand this legislative offensive to ratify euthanasia? " the association asks in a press release.
