It started with mass sterilizations of the ones they called "useless mouths". Then came the murders, but it was done by injections and was mostly relegated to the most severe, then the less severe forms of disabilities. The breaking point for many doctors and nurses was when they started murdering children, but up to that point everything was still very secret. But you are right, they were perfecting a mechanism for mass murder, eventually genocide.
