The report is further proof that abortion proponents are misleading Americans when they deny that human beings survive abortions. In a recent op-ed for The Nation, abortionist Daniel Grossman claimed abortion survivors are “an imagined situation.” Abortion proponents Andrea Grimes and Sharona Coutts wrote an article called “Disproven: The Myth of Infants ‘Born Alive’ After Abortion.”
However, the available — though limited — data has long said otherwise. According to Centers for Disease Control data reviewed by CLI, “[N]ationwide, between 2003 and 2014 at least 143 babies died after being born alive during botched abortions, though the CDC also states this could be an underestimation.”
