Respect Women, Require Safety
 

Board of Health,

The news about unsafe conditions in abortion clinics in Virginia is alarming. One would assume if these were general medical clinics there would be strictly enforced regulations in place. I would think a woman would have to be desperate indeed to seek help at some of these clinics. Is there not some way it can be made clear that despite ones views on abortion, if there are clinics providing this practice, there should be safety regulations that are enforced as in any medical facility" Charlotte Worsham
