Keep ban on killer drug - parishes
Simone Holzafpel, executive director of Australians Against RU486, says: "This foolish proposal is about as logical as saying that because halidomide may be used today to treat some cancers, we should make it available to pregnant women, as we did with such disastrous results 40 years ago
"We challenge those pushing RU486 for abortions to be honest.
"Their red herrings about RU486 show their complete lack of understanding of the facts of the impact of this drug on women's health. Frankly their proposals are dangerous for women.
“When used as an abortafacient, RU486 has a maternal mortality rate 10 times higher than surgical abortion.
"If this is not bad enough, almost a quarter of women suffer adverse effects from RU486."
