BY LifeSiteNews.com BEIJING, People’s Republic of China, March 11, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In Vitro Fertilization authorities in Beijing have received 10,000 applications for test tube babies, says a report from Beijing Morning News—in a country where at least 6,000 abortions are carried out every day.  According to Dr. Zhang Lizhu of the No. 3 Clinical Hospital at Beijing University, the People’s Republic has 200 increasingly popular IVF clinics. But at least two million unborn children per year are eliminated through abortion and infanticide in China’s hospitals and clinics. The World Health Organization has reported that 50 million women are now statistically “missing” due to sex-selective abortions over the past few decades.  The IVF report comes only a month after mainland China opened its first abortion clinic just for teenagers, in south-western Chongqing province—a move that the Beijing Star Daily predicts will increase promiscuity. During the clinic’s first month, 300 girls knocked on the door, and several had abortions; one five-month unborn baby was aborted with permission from the under-18 mother’s parents.  For media coverage:  http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200303/11/eng20030311_113131.shtml and:  http://www.heraldsun.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5478,6111781%255E401,00.html   For statistics on abortion in China:  http://www.abortionfacts.com/statistics/world_statistics_canada.asp http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/10000-chinese-want-ivf-babies-despite-6000-abortions-daily/
