Former abortion doctor says: ‘You Never Need Late-Term Abortion To Save A Woman’s Life’

I know we have some physicians on this board. So what about it, doctors. Agree? Disagree?

quote:

During an interview with Live Action founder Lila Rose, former abortion doctor Anthony Levatino stated that late-term abortions are never medically necessary:

We hear all the time how abortion, including especially late-term abortion, is necessary to save women's lives. Nothing could be further from the truth. I spent nine years working at a tertiary medical center. There are only certain hospitals in the country that are designated to take care of the really, really high-risk pregnancies ...

Albany Medical Center in Albany, New York, where I worked, was one of them. I was faculty at the hospital for nine years, and I saw hundreds of cases of really severe pregnancy complications – cancers, heart disease, intractable diabetes ... toxemia pregnancy, out of control. In those nine years, I saved hundreds of women from life-threatening pregnancies, and I did that by delivering them, by ending their pregnancy by delivery – either induction of labor or cesarean section...

I always tell people, in all of those years, the number of babies that I had to, that I was obligated to deliberately kill in the process was zero, none.

This has always been rather self explanatory.

They don't abort the baby with a Star Trek phaser. The thing doesn't de-materialize.

After you kill it, you still have a 6+ pound baby in there that's got to come out.

Same here. There's literally no reason why a fetus at 28 weeks and up can't be delivered alive and survive if removing the child is necessary to save the mother.

To say late term abortions are needed in cases where the mother's life is in danger is a scientifically ignorant statement.

But several liberal posters who've watched Grey's Anatomy intently, say otherwise.

Shrevehog tried to post a link to an example where this was needed.

The link showed:

The abortion happened at 16 weeks
The mother was obese and advised not to get pregnant in the first place due to chances of pulmonary hypertension.
Idiot mother gets pregnant and is suffering from PH and gets abortion.
Shrevehog abandons post and goes into some inane drivel about rights or something.

No shite...you need to deliver the baby..as is done with Eclamptic Moms...No need to kill the child. This is a ridiculous agreement by uniformed libtards who don't give a shite about human life.

I stand with Trump. 20 weeks for abortion. Anything after must be to save a mother's life or in cases of non viability. He has laid this out as his position and I'm with him. Hell even I can do with a week or 2 shorter than 20 weeks. Trump loves him some dead babies though.

So you believe an abortion at 30 weeks "if it saves the mother's life" is cool? You believe that delivering the baby is not enough to save the mother in some cases, but only killing the kid would do the trick?

Never necessary to abort what is after 24 weeks a viable baby. Can deliver the baby and save both lives.
