Abstract: The right to happiness implies also the fact that the right to protection of health should be assured, as being a fundamental right stipulated in both the Romanian Constitution and the main international and European acts that Romania is part of. A form to guarantee this right at the level of each country is the one realized through the means of the criminal law. In this purpose, the analysis of the particularities of the infringements against life and of the ones against health is more than important. Having as a reference point the right to happiness, the present article focuses on some of the new infringements, which were introduced in the Romanian legislation by the New Criminal Code, entered into force on the 1st of February 2014, namely the ones that protect the social relations concerning the beginning and the end of life.
