Contemporary era

Among countries around the world, all European (except Belarus) and many Oceanian states (including Australia and New Zealand), and Canada have abolished capital punishment. In Latin America, most states have completely abolished the use of capital punishment, while some countries such as Brazil and Guatemala allow for it only in exceptional situations, such as treason committed during wartime. The United States (the federal government and 29 of the states), some Caribbean countries and the majority of countries in Asia (for example, Japan and India) retain capital punishment. In Africa, less than half of countries retain it, for example Botswana and Zambia. South Africa abolished the death penalty in 1995.

Usk-you are right-capital punishment is a political subject. Still-we expect doctors, nurses, a healthcare system (that include also cleaners, security etc.) to do the maximum to SAVE lives-on the other hand some countries claim to have a right to TAKE lives....
