Replace 'then intervention' by 'and intervention' and replace
'and should be given' by 'then it should be given'.

No, I simply mixed up two words. Sorry about that.

If intervention is required, and wanted by the terminally

No one is forcing the doctor to help.

If a doctor doesn't want to help, then they shouldn't have to.
