There’s no easy way for me to put this, so I’m just going to flat-out say it: Right now, the state of the world has reached dystopian levels. The coronavirus is infecting thousands daily, quarantines and social distancing efforts are predicted to be in effect until at least April 30 in the United States, and hand sanitizers and disinfecting wipes have become rare precious jewels to hoard.
But while the world was completely tuned in to the news and the government’s next steps in the battle of COVID-19, I was completely tuned out. In the midst of the madness, I found out I was seven weeks pregnant and facing the reality of trying to get an abortion during a global pandemic.
Two positive pregnancy tests stared back at me during one of the most horrific times in global history. The world was preparing to go on lockdown, everyone was dousing themselves in disinfectant spray, and I couldn’t fathom any of it due to the constant knowledge that I was pregnant.
“The reasons people seek abortions do not go away during a pandemic.”
That I wanted to get an abortion was never a question: I barely knew the person who got me pregnant, I have fertility issues that could cause trouble if I decided to carry to term, and most important, I’m in no way prepared to have a child—especially now that the world is falling apart. But getting an abortion pre-coronavirus was nearly impossible for many women—the thought of getting one during a pandemic was terrifying.

Indeed.
At the very least, she won’t be fertile again for at least 10 more months! :-0
The Brutality of abortion.
If only there were things that could allow women to have sex and not get pregnant. If only you were not an irresponsibile slut.
Your enemies revel in death, folks. The murder of babies is just one of many deaths that the leftists around you praise.

I am more concerned for women who were told to give birth in hospitals alone but for a nurse.
I suspect God knew that argument long before He allowed conception. I suspect God knows that child is just what that young woman needs to get her through what the world is turning into. Without love, you have... nothing.
