WASHINGTON, D.C., September, 16 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Planned Parenthood of Greater Iowa is using a webcam to give the dangerous RU-486 drug, a chemical used to induce abortions, to walk-in patients, reports Iowa Right to Life.
Women come for the chemical abortion and instead of consulting an abortionist face-to-face, they face a screen connected to a person somewhere else in the state via web cameras.
In addition, Planned Parenthood does not follow FDA Protocol for RU-486, says Iowa RTL. Planned Parenthood gives women a single RU-486 pill, instead of the three recommended by the FDA. Then, the dosage of the less expensive Misoprostol, which expels the baby, is increased. Additionally, one of the FDA-recommended doctor’s visits is cut out of the process.
“This is despicable,” said Judie Brown, president of American Life League. “Not only is this abortion chain murdering innocent preborn children, but they are putting the lives of the mothers in serious danger. Planned Parenthood doesn’t care about women’s health at all.”
The chemical abortion drug has been shown to be responsible for over 600 adverse affects and is the direct cause of at least thirteen deaths since its introduction to the western world, according to Dr. John Willke of Life Issues Institute.
“It is unbelievable that people still believe the lie that Planned Parenthood cares about women.” Brown said. “This organization has its doctors administering a seriously dangerous drug regime with no face-to-face interaction with a doctor and is covering up the dangers of RU-486. It’s a money-mongering business that is only too happy to cut back doctor-patient time in a dangerous chemical abortion to save money.”
