Abortion chain with long history of health violations tweets: ‘Abortion is good. We like abortion’

clinic, abortion, Missouri

On January 10th, abortion chain Whole Woman’s Health brashly tweeted:

“Nobody *likes* abortion.”

Wrong. We do. We’ve provided countless abortions to patients who went on to live their best lives. Abortion is safe and it gives people control of their futures. Abortion is good. We like abortion.

Most people like the thing that pays their bills, especially if it’s exceptionally lucrative – and abortion qualifies. Whole Woman’s Health charges $400 just to drop the abortion pill regimen in the mail. While they don’t advertise how much it costs to take the pills in their office or get a surgical abortion, it’s likely more. And according to their own tweet, they have committed “countless” abortions; recently, one of their locations recklessly committed 67 in 17 hours to beat a Texas deadline – enough to bank a sizable pile of cash.

As for patients going on “to live their best lives,” one must question how they would gather such information. This abortion chain has been cited at more than one location for failing to schedule even the single required follow-up visit, and for failing to make sufficient effort to contact clients who missed their follow-up appointments. This does not sound like an organization that cares what happens to their customers after they leave the facility.

Research shows that post-abortive women face unique risks and challenges, including elevated mortality rates, increased risk of mental health problems, and a dramatically increased risk of substance abuse issues. 

Whole Woman’s Health’s platitudes about people going on to “live their best lives” ring hollow when compared to actual facts.

So do their assurances of abortion’s safety, and specifically abortions committed in their facilities. The Whole Woman’s Health chain has been repeatedly cited for health and safety code violations. Some of its locations evidenced dozens of violations, including using expired medicationsusing dirty, torn, and rusty equipment; and for having untrained and unvetted staff. Not only does this belie their “safety” claim, it also demonstrates the low level of regard Whole Woman’s Health has for its customers.

The idea that abortion ”gives people control over their futures” is also questionable. The only person whose future is “controlled” by abortion is the preborn human that is being killed – because abortion slams that child’s doorway to the future shut, permanently.

There’s nothing surprising about this tweet. Of course abortionists are fond of abortion. In the case of Whole Woman’s Health, they appear so fond of abortion that they are willing to lie, endanger their clients, and flaunt the law to keep doing it.
