The hospitals in Sverdlovsk announced a plan to deny women abortions.
The Ministry of Health of the Sverdlovsk Region has set a task for the hospitals in Nizhny Tagil to persuade 40% of those seeking help to refuse an abortion. This was reported by v-tagile.ru.
This directive was announced to the deputies of the Nizhny Tagil City Duma by the minister's advisor, Elena Chadova. According to the official, the current effectiveness of pre-abortion counseling in the city—when it is possible to convince a woman to keep the child—is insufficient.
“For example, the fourth hospital shows us a pre-abortion counseling effectiveness of 16%. The first hospital—21%, Demidovskaya—19%. The minister has set us the task of 40%,” quotes IA “All News” Chadova.
Contrary to stereotypes, those seeking abortions are not young girls, but, as a rule, already established mothers.
“These are usually women from well-off families who believe that one or two children are enough for them,” explained the minister's advisor.
Young people under 30, according to Chadova, prefer to have pets rather than children, writes v-tagile.ru. She called for all efforts to be made to save every child.
“If a woman is already pregnant and comes for a consultation, we must work with her. We just need to help her, even to sort things out. Sometimes it’s just a quarrel, right? The husband doesn’t want [the child]. You know how much depends on the husband?” said Elena Chadova.
