Fox News is falsely claiming that a new study concerning the survival rate of premature newborns will have an outsized impact on abortion law.
A recent study published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) suggests that an extremely small number of premature babies born at 22 weeks can survive outside the womb with extensive medical intervention.
The New York Times reported that, according to the study, "a vast majority died or suffered serious health issues" despite these best efforts. Because the Supreme Court has held that states cannot ban abortion prior to fetal viability, many pro-life advocates and now Fox News are already suggesting that the current medical standard of viability be lowered to 22 weeks - a conclusion the study does not support.
In fact, not only does this claim misrepresent the science, it also misinterprets how the Supreme Court has defined "viability" in its rulings on reproductive rights.they are so embedded in getting the misinfo out that they are lying about what their allies the right wing side of scotus is saying do they the scotus want to continue going against the wishes of the people to favor those who twist their words making them complicit in what ever lie they are spreading. when the under informed half of American learns who is really their friends despite the hate and vitriol they parrot from Fox and their politicians who both are not on their side if they were they would not be snatching their food stamps and healthcare and vote. wake up everybody!
