Abstract
There is a joint work of the National Medical Chamber and the Investigative Committee of Russia on a draft special article in the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, within the framework of which they will investigate the cases of medical workers. The proposed revision of the Article 124 raised objections from the medical community. The main issue is the legitimacy to consider the unborn child a subject of criminal law. There are serious disagreements in the legal and medical communities on the question of when the right to life arises. The legal status of a born child should be defined in the relevant regulations, the development of which should involve public organizations of professional specialists.References
