Vatican daily L'Osservatore
Romano on Wednesday slammed new government guidelines for the
RU486 abortion pill extending its use from seven to nine weeks
and ending compulsory admission to hospital after using it.
"Everywhere, abortion continues to reap innocent victims and to
devastate the lives of so many women: for this reason the
decision to extend the practice can only prove to be
disconcerting, increasing the possibilities of suppressing
children, who with their being there, only ask to come into the
world," said the daily.
"And in an era of COVID-19 emergency, in which we can only
celebrate the heroism of doctors and operators who give their
lives to save other human lives, this appears paradoxical".
The Vatican has already come out against the new looser rules
for the pill.
