BY LifeSiteNews.com By Hilary WhiteCANBERRA, Australian Health Minister Tony Abbott announced yesterday that health risks associated with the abortion drug, RU-486 are serious enough that the killer drug will remain banned. Abbott said that though the drug itself may sometimes be a “preferable” method of abortion, it was unsafe when used in areas where there was limited access to obstetric facilities.The Health Ministry report said that the drug “carries a significantly higher risk of later adverse events, such as incomplete termination and prolonged bleeding.”“The advice from the Department of Health and Ageing provides no reasons for changing the longstanding practice of the Government and its predecessor in regard to the availability of RU486,” Abbott said.RU 486, a drug that has been proven deadly to mothers as well as their children, has been a topic of debate in the Australian Parliament. Democrats have pushed an amendment to the Therapeutic Goods Act that would remove the restrictions on the drug.
