Honest Information
Honest Information I'm outraged by erroneous, reckless and manipulated conclusions based upon faulty research. I've just finished reading an article that describes such blatant disregard for science . The article dissects a recent conclusion reached by a study entitled The comparative safety of legal induced abortion and childbirth in the United States , by Elizabeth G. Raymond, MD, MPH and David A. Grimes, MD. Their conclusion: "Legal induced abortion is markedly safer than childbirth." However, the study appears riddled with errors. The study was based upon data reported by abortion clinics to state health departments and compiled by the Centers for Disease Control. This data is far from adequate for such a sweeping generalization or conclusion . Abortion reporting is not required by federal law Many states do not report abortion-related deaths to the CDC Deaths due to medical and surgical treatments are not reported as "due to treatment"
