re: #119 SixDegrees

True, although dead fetuses are routinely aborted at any major hospital, regardless of how late in pregnancy the death occurs.

I’m not certain, but I’m fairly sure that third trimester abortions only account for less than 2% of all abortions. So the relative paucity of facilities performing such procedures has little impact on the availability of abortion overall.

Tell that to the women who need a third trimester abortion because their own lives are at risk, or who will otherwise be forced to give birth to an infant who will die slowly and painfully because the fetal abnormalities are so great.
Those are what third trimester abortions are about.
