lovely chart of childs chance of survival being born pre term.
around 5.5 months (24 weeks ) there is a 50 % chance of survival. Why can the child not be delivered in the 9th month at almost full term where anything above 34 weeks ( late 8th month ) has a 98% chance of survival.
I do not have a problem with a womans right to chose - she can get health insurance that covers it or pay for it out of pocket. Why should it come from tax dollars.
