I don't think this is true, the first human right is the right to die, and secondly the right to live. So you can only live a life that allows you to die.

For example, if my mother is in a hospital dying from corona, and the system forbids me to see her (despite me taking precautions that I deem fit), I must revolt.

This of course sounds like nonsense, and I am also conflicted, but this is my intuition.

I was recently hospitalized for a suicide attempt due to years of chronic pain and depression as a result. I was not allowed to die. I get no help to live after being dumped back out when "stable" medically. I was not allowed any visitors due to the virus and it was very detrimental to my mental health. Now I am here alone trying to piece together a future. Nobody revolted...and I am powerless to. Frustrates me so much there wasn't help to live...but I am told I have to. Trapped in a room with no doors or windows and on fire. I don't see this "help" everyone says there is to get. Just people wanting thousands of dollars from me that I cannot pay for nonsense.

That's tough to hear. I've been close to such a situation, but managed to recover after a move across half the country (and self-medication). I imagine there must be some service you can call, to talk to someone who actually cares. I wish you strength in reaching out and getting through somehow.

But life and death are not really that separated.

To die is, after all, part of life. There cannot be one without the other. Thus (logcially?) the right to live is equivalent to the right to die.
