    Ok, try going in to a hospital in Europe and not give them any information, not including even your name or whether you’re allergic to anything.

      It’s possible to have an “anonymous birth”, so mother and baby get medical care, but don’t need to give a name. It is meant for cases where the mother wouldn’t or couldn’t seek help otherwise, e.g. in abusive relationships or family situations.
