@prolifeinternational Death occurs in 0.0006% of all legal surgical abortions (rare and usually the result of such things embolism, infection, or uncontrollable bleeding). Out of over 1 million known medication abortions, only about 12 deaths have been documented. For comparison, a woman's risk of death during pregnancy and childbirth is TEN TIMES greater than either of these and about 68,000 women worldwide die each year from unsafe abortions.
@prolifeinternational Yes. Like all medications and surgeries, abortion DOES carry some risks. People die from EVERY drug or surgery, no matter how safe it is.
BRISTOL, U.K., June 12, 2008 - A Welsh teenager who died from a "safe and legal" chemical abortion done at home underwent the abortion because she was afraid of the displeasure of her boyfriend and his family, an inquest heard today.
Manon Jones, 18, an A-level student, admitted herself to Southmead Hospital in Bristol, two weeks after having a legal chemical abortion at home. She died of internal bleeding..She had taken RU486. She was the 14th officially recorded fatality form this drug.
