Baby gasping for breath is left to die after failed abortion

A case has been reported of a baby being left to die after a late-term abortion failed in New Zealand.

A healthcare student who witnessed the abortion, and who was consequently left traumatised, has recounted how a baby born alive after an abortion lived on for two hours before dying alone and unassisted.

The baby was reportedly at 21 weeks gestation when the abortion took place.

“This baby was completely healthy”, said the student, who witnessed the baby being born alive after the mother was induced. “In these situations, the baby is just left to die.”

“We wouldn’t do that to an animal. I was horrified.”

While some staff at the hospital attempted to justify the act, the student was left aghast.

“We didn’t empower this woman by leaving her child to suffer and die like that. When she left hospital, she was still in need of support and help for her situation. All we did was end the life of her baby…

“It’s actually vile and disgusting that any human would be treated that way.”

Recently, it was revealed that the UK Government does not keep any records of babies who are born alive following an abortion, as reported by SPUC.

In the United States, at least 143 abortion survivors died between 2003 and 2014; nearly 50% were alive for at least four hours, while six lived for more than a day.

SPUC comment

A SPUC spokesperson said: “Leaving a baby a die alone, which under any other circumstance would be classed as criminal neglect, is a disgrace that highlights the abortion industry’s utter lack of compassion and care for human beings.

“We must stand up and recognise that these babies are human and worthy of life, respect and care. We must protect babies at all stages of life.”
