Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

I support the raising and maintaining of health and safety regulations at abortion centers in Virginia. My concerns include:Blood splattered exam tables and equipment, unsterilized equipment, poorly or untrained staff, violations of state parental consent laws, the lack of reporting of possible cases of child sexual abuse, along with over 300 other violations through Department of Health inspections.This is not about right to choose or right to life, although I support the protection of health and safety for both baby and child. This issue is about protecting the women involved. Please support the highest of health and safety standards at abortion clinics, many of which have known violations and need to be held accountable before the law and the women they have hurt. Thank you. Amanda Ondricek
