Infractions in health and safety standards in abortion clinics
 

To ignore the health and safety stardards in abortion clinics puts a woman's health and well being  in jeopardy because  basic health and safety standards have been ignored. Several years ago, I had foot surgery by a top foot surgeon and developed a very bad infection which almost cost me my foot. It took 3 months of intensive care to kill the infection and save my foot. 

These clinics must meet the standards or be closed down.
