Business 101: Do not kill repeat customers. Only their innocent children.
Don't. The courts, as a whole, give many allowances to abortion providers, allowances not granted any other "industry" (though a sick industry it is that makes a buck by murdering the innocent). The courts will let Planned Barrenhood off scott-free.
RU-486 is one of the legacies of Slick Willy. One of the last things he did in his failed presidency is to fast-track RU-486 through for approval.
Whose brilliant idea was it to introduce/deliver the medicine vaginally?!!!!!!
THIS is the "toxic shock" death bacteria..... whadda surprise that Planned Parenthood literally opened up the floodgates with promoting this method - this has LAWSUIT written all over it. I hope the relatives of these women file wrongful death lawsuits.
Thank you for clearing this up with confused posters! I see people here getting the two mixed up all the time, when all it takes is a bit of reading. The two are very different and I can't understand how people get them confused.
Pill. Abortion. That's about as deep as it goes sometimes. :-\
BACKGROUND: Clostridia bacteria are infrequent human pathogens. In the obstetric and gynecologic literature, Clostridium sordellii infections have been very rarely reported. This is a case of infection following medical termination of early pregnancy with mifepristone and misoprostol.
CASE: A 27-year-old woman presented for termination of pregnancy at 5.5 weeks from her last menstrual period. She received mifepristone 200 mg orally followed by 800 µg vaginal misoprostol. Three days after administration of misoprostol, she complained of dizziness, pelvic pain, and bleeding. The next day, she experienced worsening of symptoms and was hospitalized. She developed pulmonary edema, ascites, and heart failure. Despite supportive measures, antibiotics, and hysterectomy, she died 3 days later. The post mortem examinations indicated that death was caused by shock secondary to C sordellii infection.
CONCLUSION: The frequency of infection following medical abortion is low. The rapid and fatal course of this infection is similar to other obstetric and gynecologic cases reported in the literature. Although providers should remain vigilant to the possibility of infection following medical abortion, the overall proven safety of medical abortion remains the same.
On July 22, this notice was posted as an MMWR Dispatch on the MMWR website (http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr).
On July 19, 2005, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a public health advisory regarding the deaths of four women in the United States after medical abortions with Mifeprex® (mifepristone, formerly RU-486; Danco Laboratories, New York, New York) and intravaginal misoprostol (1). Two of these deaths occurred in 2003, one in 2004, and one in 2005. Two of these U.S. cases had clinical illness consistent with toxic shock and had evidence of endometrial infection with Clostridium sordellii, a gram-positive, toxin-forming anaerobic bacteria. In addition, a fatal case of C. sordellii toxic shock syndrome after medical abortion with mifepristone and misoprostol was reported in 2001, in Canada (2). All three cases of C. sordellii infection were notable for lack of fever, and all had refractory hypotension, multiple effusions, hemoconcentration, and a profound leukocytosis. C. sordellii previously has been described as a cause of pregnancy-associated toxic shock syndrome (3).
Investigation by FDA, CDC, and state and local health departments into the two most recently identified U.S. deaths after medical abortion is ongoing. Empiric therapy for patients suspected of having postpartum or postabortion toxic shock syndrome should include antimicrobials with anaerobic activity against Clostridium species. Health-care providers are encouraged to report any cases of postpartum or postabortion toxic shock syndrome to their state or local health department and to CDC at telephone 800-893-0485. Cases potentially associated with use of mifepristone or misoprostol should also be reported through the FDA MedWatch system available at http://www.fda.gov/medwatch/index.html or telephone 800-FDA-1088.
That is pretty harsh...remember: most are scared kids who have been bombarded by "Abortion is Great!" messages since they've been born. However wrong-headed their decision was to abort their babies, they still didn't deserve to die.
Pray for these babies. What a terrible war they are fighting.
Incisive comment...
This is new...PP seems interested in the health of the mother.
They couldn't care less about human beings. Their concern is bad PR, and continued funding for their ongoing socialist experiment. |
No way. PP is only interested in covering their own arse.
I should have put a /sarcasm tag on my comment. They are a despicable organization from so many standpoints...
Darwin at work.
Because he clearly supports the widespread us of, and has used himself, birth control devices such as those PP pushes. A real shame, given the good example set by his parents.
"Whosoever sheds a man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed, for man was made in the image of God." (Genesis 9.6).
Where is the "didn't deserve to die for killing their own unborn child" escape clause there? And when did God suddenly lose His sovereignty to unilaterally punish grevious sin with death?
My 3 year old daughter, asked my wife and I what an abortionist is while overhearing us talk, and upon being told "an abortionist is a man who goes and kills babies inside their mommy's tummy" was then quizzed by me about "should it be okay to kill little babies inside their mommy's tummy?" instinctually knew enough to say "no" and "abortionist not a nice man" with a look of horror, revulsion, and fear.
If a 3 year old can figure it out, I'm sure 15 year olds and 25 year olds can too.
