Weeding Out the “Unfit” Unborn
New Threats From an Old Ideology
TORONTO, NOV. 12, 2005 (Zenit.org).- A growing demand for “perfect children” is leading to the elimination of unborn babies with health problems. The Globe and Mail newspaper reported Oct. 28 that the number of children born with cystic fibrosis has fallen sharply in recent years.
According to research published in the Journal of Pediatrics, currently 1 in 3,608 babies born in Canada suffer from cystic fibrosis, compared with 1 in 2,714 before a genetic test for this disease existed. “Our hypothesis,” Mary Corey, a senior scientist at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, told the Globe and Mail, “is that pregnancies are being terminated.”
