Emergency contraception is better than abortion

摘要

Ellie Levenson's Broad spectrum article (PJ, 17 May,p592) made sense to me. I have no connections with anti-abortion organisations, but I am convinced that I am not the only reader who feels strongly that the 200,000 terminations carried out in the UK last year are excessive. If we look at the cost in financial and emotional terms it makes more sense to prevent unwanted pregnancies rather than perform abortions on the mothers.
