Sarah was 14 weeks pregnant when doctors discovered a severe complication. Without treatment, she could lose her life. She wanted the baby, but there was no way to save the pregnancy.
She was rushed to the hospital & then received an abortion. Today, she's alive, healthy, and we can’t deny that Healthcare saved her. Abortion is healthcare so denying people access to healthcare is diabolical!
Let’s call her Bolaji, Bolaji just found out she’s pregnant and is terrified. She has no one to go to and because of the current stigma she’s planning on taking matters into her own hands.
Bolaji doesn’t know if professional medical institutions would attend to her given she has no money, no knowledge and is very young so what does Bolaji do?
A major public health fact: restricting access does not necessarily reduce abortions. It mainly increases the chance that abortions happen under unsafe conditions.
