( Why aborting women have (at least) a 150% increased AIDS risk)
26 October 1998
Who has a higher risk of contracting AIDS, a person with a strong immune system or a person with a weak immune system? Those who do not know that a weak immune system is the easier 'road' to AIDS, should read Rethinking Aids (Robert Root-Bernstein, PhD). Who is more likely to have a weak immune system, a woman who smokes, 'boozes', has VD, and takes oral contraceptives or a woman with none of these 'factors'? Why should oral contraceptives reduce the strength of the immune system? "Birth control pills rob the body of nutrients. Many pill-users are seriously deficient in folic acid, as well as vitamins B1, B2, B6, B12, C, E and essential minerals such as zinc and magnesium. A pill-user's need for vitamin B6 is 50 to 100 times greater than normal requirements. "  Women who resort to induced abortion are at a much elevated risk of smoking, VD, binge drinking and taking oral contraceptives.
How much increased risk of AIDS for women who have induced abortions? The Lancet is a prestigious medical journal. In 1992 it reported a 154% increased risk of HIV infection for women who chose induced abortion versus women who chose delivering babies.  Also in 1992 the prestigious British Medical Journal reported a 554% increased HIV risk for women who chose induced abortion versus women who delivered.  In 1997 the European Journal of Epidemiology reported a 172% increased HIV-1 risk for women who chose abortion. The lowest risk increase of these 3 studies is 154%!!
'Birth control' (i.e. birth prevention) advocates promised a revolution in women's health. They have delivered, but only if you believe that AIDS wiping out women is a benefit. However, worse than AIDS is that aborting women are much more likely to start smoking cigarettes. How can the U.S. president fight teen smoking but promote induced abortion?
