“Emergency contraception has been heralded as the solution to rising abortion rates – it’s not” Professor Anna Glasier says in an editorial in The BMJ, quoted in The Daily Mail of 15th September 2006. Young people have been given easy access to the pills in pharmacies and in schools, and its use has doubled. But the abortion rate went up from 11 per thousand women aged 15 to 44 in 1984 to 17.8 by 2004. |
