The Swiss Exit suicide group published their 2025 death data indicating a 15% increase from 2024. An article published by Swissinfo on March 2, 2026 stated:
In 2025, 1,421 people made use of Exit Switzerland’s services in the German and Italian-speaking parts of the country. This is higher than in 2024, when 1,235 cases of assisted suicide were registered.
The article continued:
As has been the case for many years, more women (818) than men (603) used Exit to end their lives.

There was also a significant increase in the number of assisted suicide deaths of people who are not dying. Swissinfo reported:
According to its annual report, 32% of people who resorted to assisted suicide had terminal cancer, which corresponds to 461 cases. There is also a significant number of elderly people with multiple disorders (polymorbidity) who opted for an assisted death: last year there were 326 cases (23% of the total), compared to 205 in 2024.
Polymorbidity refers to people who are not dying but are approved for assisted suicide based on multiple health concerns. For instance, a sore back and chronic depression.
According to the data there were 326 (23%) who were poisoned to death for polymorbidity in 2025 and 205 (less than 17%) in 2024.
It is concerning that almost 58% (818) of the Exit assisted suicide deaths are women but when you consider the massive increase in deaths of people based on polymorbidity then one must ask if Exit has a misogynistic attitude?
Remember, Exit is only one of the assisted suicide groups in Switzerland.
