Petition Religious beliefs should not result in the loss of life.

It is my opinion that allowing the loss of life by preventing life saving treatment such as blood donation on religious grounds or beliefs is wrong and should not occur.

More details

I am aware that in the case of the last resort of life saving blood donation being required to save life the religious beliefs of Jehovah's Witnesses would prevent this from being administered which would result in the loss of life.
I believe this to be wrong and request a change in the law to prevent this occurring.
